Advanced performance monitoring graphs

This section describes how to create the advanced performance monitor graphs listed in
on page 91. Because the procedure for creating these graphs differs depending on the type of
graph, each type is described separately in the sections that follow.
The advanced monitoring graphs are not supported for GbE ports.
NOTE
You must have an Advanced Performance Monitoring license installed to use the Advance

Performance Monitoring works only in AD255.
