Status Monitoring and Statistics

This chapter describes the following topics:
• Status Monitoring on page 171
• Port Statistics on page 173
• Port Errors on page 173
• Port Monitoring Display Keys on page 174
• Setting the System Recovery Level on page 175
• Logging on page 175

Viewing statistics on a regular basis allows you to see how well your network is performing. If you
keep simple daily records, you will see trends emerging and notice problems arising before they cause
major network faults. In this way, statistics can help you get the best out of your network.

Status Monitoring

The status monitoring facility provides information about the switch. This information may be useful
for your technical support representative if you have a problem. ExtremeWare includes many show
commands that display information about different switch functions and facilities.
NOTE
For more information about show commands for a specific ExtremeWare feature, see the appropriate
chapter in this guide.
