Monitoring Network Traffic Levels


The Traffic Monitor presents real-time information about the status of your network.

To access the Traffic Monitor, you may either click on the Examine Details button in the “Network Traffic” pane of
the HP Toptools for Hubs & Switches Home page (accessed via the navigation panel by clicking the Home button
and selecting Hubs & Switches home) or by clicking the Performance button in the navigation panel and selecting
Traffic Monitor.

The Traffic Monitor page displays five gauges in the top half of the browser window and a histogram in the bottom
half of the window. Each gauge displays the worst measurement in the entire network of that statistical attribute.
The histogram below the gauges displays the value of an attribute, such as broadcasts/sec, for the segments in a
selected segment group.
