What is a Real Time Chart?
7800-A2-GB28-80
A Real Time Chart consists of 1 to 4 graphs that display statistical data on the
performance of your network devices. These graphs are updated dynamically.
That is, you can monitor the performance of devices and data is displayed and
updated in real time.
The data that is collected is divided into chart types (described below). The chart
types that are available to you depend on the device interface or Data Link
Connection Identifier (DLCI) that you select from the Device Display Area within
the Navigation Wizard.
