types for easier comparison of graphs.
Generating a real-time performance graph
You can monitor the device performance through a performance graph that displays transmit and
receive data. The graphs can be sorted by the column headers. You can create multiple real-time
performance graph instances.
NOTE
To make sure that statistics for a switch do not fail, you must configure SNMP credentials for the
switch. For step-by-step instructions, refer to
“Discovery” on page 37.
To generate a real-time performance graph for a device, complete the following steps.
1. Select the fabric, device, or port for which you want to generate a performance graph.
Right-click and select Performance > Real-Time Graph/Table or select Monitor > Performance
> Real-Time Graph. The Real Time Graphs/Tables dialog box displays.
If you selected a port, the Real Time Performance Graphs dialog box for the selected port
displays. To filter real-time performance data from the Real Time Performance Graphs dialog
box, refer to
“Filtering real-time performance data” on page 1610.
If you selected a fabric or a device, the Realtime Port Selector dialog box displays, as shown in
Figure 725 . Continue with step 2 .

If you selected a host adapter, the Realtime Port Selector - Hosts dialog box displays with all
the managed HBA and CNA ports of the discovered hosts, as shown in
