TATUS ONITORING AND TATISTICS
This chapter describes how to view the current
operating status of the Switch, how to display any
error information in a fault log and how to carry out
a remote poll to check the response of another net-
work device.
It also describes the Statistics screens for the
Switch, and advises you on actions to take if you
see unexpected values for the statistics. Please note
however, that as all networks are different, any
actions listed are only suggestions.
Viewing statistics on a regular basis allows you to
see how well your network is performing. If you
keep simple daily records, you will see trends emerg-
ing and notice problems arising before they cause
major network faults. This way, statistics can help
you get the best out of your network.
