TATISTICS
This chapter describes how to view the current operating status of the
switch, how to display information in the log, and how to take advantage
of available Remote Monitoring (RMON) capabilities.
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 emerging and notice problems arising before they cause major
network faults. This way, statistics can help you get the best out of your
network.
Status Monitoring
The status monitoring facility provides information about the switch. This
information may be useful for your technical support representative if you
have a problem. The Switch 9100 includes many show commands that
display information about different switch functions and facilities.
For more information about show commands for a specific Switch 9100
feature, refer to the appropriate chapter in this guide.
