Topology Report

Free ports Report

The capacity report allows you to gauge how many available ports you
have on your network. It lists the following details for each device:
IP address
Device type
Total ports on the device
Ports available (unused) on the device
This report provides information on all devices for which 3Com Network
Director has port information. To gather this port information, the device
needs to support SNMP.
At the bottom of the Ports available column is a summary listing the
number of free ports across the device selection and a percentage of how
many ports are available of the total ports present.
This report is launched from the Reports dialog box and is
selection-sensitive.
You can see all links showing each device-to-device connection in your
network using the topology report. This report lists the following details
for the devices at each of the physical link ends:
IP address
Device type
Unit number
Port number
This report is launched from the Reports dialog box, and is
selection-sensitive.
This report is accessible when a high utilization event occurs (this happens
when utilization on a link exceeds the threshold limit). When examining
the high utilization event one of the remedies suggested (accessed via the
More Detail dialog box) is to move the device to a switch that supports a
higher link speed and/or full duplex mode. To launch the free ports report

The free ports report lists the number of free ports on each device in the
current map that are capable of speeds above a certain value.
