    For information on implementing TopN filtering, refer to “Using the Define TopN Filter Dialog Box” on page Device SMON Tools The following sections describe the Device SMON tools for Avaya C460: • Switch Statistics Overview detailed information on traffic passing through the switch fabric.

  • Page 13: Switch Statistics Overview

    Switch Statistics Overview The Switch Statistics tool provides details of the traffic passing through the switch fabric and allows you to detect problems on the switch. Once a problem has been detected, you can use VLAN or Port Statistics to determine more precisely the cause of the problem.

  • Page 14: Port Statistics Overview

    Switch Statistics makes it straightforward to discover the cause of a problem. For example, using Switch Statistics you may discover that there are too many errors on a specific switch. You could then use Port Statistics to help indicate the port from which the problem originates. For more information on using the Port Statistics tool, refer to Statistics.

  • Page 15: Alarms And Events Overview

    VLAN Statistics represents the information as a horizontal bar chart. Using this tool in conjunction with Port Statistics and Switch Statistics makes it straightforward to discover the cause of a problem. For example, using VLAN Statistics you may discover that there are too many broadcast errors on a specific VLAN.
