Port Packet Monitor
D-View helps you monitor and troubleshoot Switch Ports for traffic, utilization
and errors of a specific device. D-View pinpoints the port flow in real time and
identifies their impact on the network.
Ensure the devices support RFC1213 to monitor the port flow in devices.
To monitor the Port Packet flow:
1. Go to NetTools > Port Packet Monitor. The Port Monitor screen displays.
2. Select the ports and then click the Utilization button
The formula to calculate the port percentage usage.
Utilization: (InOctets + OutOctets)*8 / Port Speed / Time Interval
- InOctets: The total number of octets received, including framing characters
- OutOctets: The total number of octets transmitted, including framing
characters.
3. Set the Port Packet options. These values are calculated tracking the
number of packets received and/or transmitted over a period of time.
