Interpreting the Statistics
The Utilization graph scales automatically to display the percentage
of bandwidth used on all ports of the Switch over the last 30
seconds:
A bandwidth utilization of 0–25% (green bar on the graph)
indicates that the ports are dealing with a light traffic load.
A bandwidth utilization of 26–85% (yellow bar on the graph)
indicates that the ports are dealing with a normal traffic load.
A bandwidth utilization of 86–100% (red bar on the graph)
indicates that the ports are dealing with a heavy traffic load. This
could be caused by a fault in your network, or an inadequate
network configuration.
The Total Errors graph scales automatically to display the total
number of packets with errors that have been seen on the ports of
the Switch over the last 30 seconds.
You can display a range of statistics for a specific port on the Switch
using the Port Graph page.
