About Report
Graphs

In bar-graph and line-graph reports, the x-axis (or tick mark) plots time, according to
the interval you select. The y-axis plots the metric of interest, such as gigabytes (GB)
of bandwidth, percent (%) of data reduction, connection counts, and the like.

A diamond icon above the top margin of the graph points to the value on the x-axis (the
time) at which the peak occurred.
