D-View 5.1 User's Guide
♦ Data Source ifIndex – This entry identifies the source of the data that this
etherStats entry is configured to analyze. This source can be any Ethernet
interface on the device.
♦ Owner – This entry is the entity that initiated the entry and is using the
resources assigned to it.
♦ Buckets (1..65535) – The requested number of discrete time intervals over
which data is to be saved.
♦ Interval (1..3600) – The interval in seconds over which the data is sampled for
each bucket. This interval can be set to any number of seconds between 1 and
3600 (1 hour).
Other functions of the Control Table are as follows:
♦ Modify – To modify an existing entry, click the entry to highlight it, and click
Modify. Data Source, Owner, Buckets, and Interval can be modified as desired.
♦ Delete – To delete an entry, click the entry to highlight it, and click Delete to
remove it.
♦ View – If more than one entry exists in the Control Table, it will be necessary to
use the View function, because only one entry's statistics may be viewed at any
time. To view an entry, click the entry to highlight, and click View – if View is
not active, then that entry is currently set for view.
♦ Refresh – The Refresh function rewrites the Control Table.
History Table Tab
The History Table is an historical sample of Ethernet statistics on a particular
Ethernet interface. The History Control Group sets parameters for the History Statistics
Group for a regular collection of these samples. These samples are collected in
historical data entries, called buckets, each poll interval.
The different statistics are described below:
♦ Drop Events – The total number of events in which packets were dropped by
the probe due to lack of resources during this sampling interval. Note that this
number is not necessarily the number of packets dropped, it is just the number
of times this condition has been detected.
♦ Octets – The total number of octets of data (including those in bad packets)
received on the network (excluding framing bits but including FCS octets).
♦ Packets – The number of packets (including bad packets) received during this
sampling interval.
