BASELINING STATISTICS
This chapter describes how baselining statistics work in the SuperStack™ II
Switch 2200, and how to set, display, enable, or disable a baseline statistic.
About Setting
Baselines
Normally, statistics for MACs and ports start compiling at system power-up.
Baselining allows you to view statistics over the period of time since a
baseline was set. By viewing statistics relative to a baseline, you can more
easily evaluate recent activity in your system or on your network.
Baselining is maintained across Administration Console sessions. Statistics
you view after setting the baseline indicate that they are relative to the
baseline. To view statistics as they relate only to the most recent power up,
you must disable the baseline.
Baselining affects the statistics displayed for Ethernet ports, FDDI resources,
and bridges.
Displaying the
Current Baseline
You can display the current baseline to see when the baseline was last set
and to determine if you need a newer baseline for viewing statistics.
To display the current baseline, enter the following commands from the top
level of the Administration Console:
system baseline display
Example:
Baseline set at 08/07/96 10:42:52 AM is currently enabled.
If a baseline has not been set on the system, you see the following
message:
Baseline has not yet been set.
