Frame Relay Line Vital Statistics
Network Vital Statistics provide real-time measures of network conditions to
present a statistical picture of what is happening on the network links as
depicted in figure 13. Working simultaneously with decodes, filters and other
measurements the Vital Statistics feature interprets data traffic as it occurs.
This feature can be used to identify network problems or to assist the user in
optimizing the configuration on network components and software. Vital
Statistics are gathered in intervals of 1-second. Values may also be logged to
disk.
Values in the Vital Statistics display are presented in tabular form and are
cumulative from the start of a test. Instantaneous utilization is displayed in
graphical format for a quick look at overall usage of the network. The
following values are provided for both the Line (Network) side and the
Equipment (User) side:
Max., min., and avg. utilization (%)
Max., min., inst., and avg. throughput in kb/s
Total octets (bytes)
Total frames/packets
Short frames/packets
Abort frames/packets
FCS errors
