Setting a Custom Period
You can format the graph to provide data within a custom time period. This feature can be extremely
useful for pinpointing performance changes. For example, assumed you changed the firmware of a
switch two weeks ago and you want to compare the performance of that switch before and after
you changed its firmware. You could create a graph that provides performance data two weeks
before you changed the firmware. You could then create another graph that provides performance
data two weeks after you changed the firmware.
IMPORTANT:
If you change the date in the field to a date that does not exist in a month, the
software automatically calculates the date to the next month. For example, if you enter
2003/11/31, the software assumes the date is 2003/12/01.
