Network Layer Subnet Statistics (Ip & Ipx); Network Layer Host Statistics (Ip) - Avaya M770 User Manual

Chapter 1
Protocol Distribution stores all data recently collected from the device.
This allows you to use the bar graph, pie charts, and traffic graph to
study the behavior of your network over a period of time. Protocol
Distribution also allows you to save collected information from a session
for later viewing and comparison.
Protocol Distribution gives you an overall view of the traffic passing
through the device over time. You can learn what is normal and
abnormal behavior for your specific network by viewing the Protocol
Distribution graphs and studying the relationships between them. This
can help you analyze traffic trends on your network, and discover
problems as they occur. In general, the Protocol Distribution tool can
help you see things that only become apparent over time from a high-
level view.

Statistics
(IP & IPX)
Network Layer Subnet Statistics provides the information you need to
locate various kinds of subnets that exist in the network. It is useful for
discovering which subnets are generating high traffic loads. Using
Network Layer Subnet Statistics, together with TopN and filters, you can
get an in-depth analysis of network traffic to help locate problems on the
network.

average or cumulative packets. A host is any IP machine connected to a
switch port that can send and receive packets to or from other IP
machines. A host is normally a workstation, management console, or
server.
