Performance View Page
The Performance View Page displays port and switch throughput (in bytes per second). The first eight
graphs show the port throughput for port number 0 through 7. Throughput for the entire switch is displayed in
the long rectangular graph at the bottom.
The horizontal axis represents time elapsed. The port throughput graphs hold up to 60 seconds of
performance data. The switch throughput graph at the bottom holds up to 4 minutes of performance data.
The vertical axis in each graph shows throughput (in bytes per second). It is automatically scaled depending
on the switch activity. The display is updated roughly once per second.
The total throughput value is the throughput sum for all ports. The throughput number represents the number
of bytes received plus the number of bytes transmitted each second. Note that, because the switch also
transmits all data it receives, the total throughput for the switch could, alternately, be stated as one-half (1/2)
of the throughput sum of all ports.
Administrative Interface Page
Only users with admin privilege can access the Administrative Interface Page. Any changes made through
this may fundamentally change the switch/port status and its role in the fabric. Check and input boxes are
provided for you to type in the changes. Submit buttons are used to apply the changes. You can enable (or
disable) the switch or ports (8). Change switch name, IP addresses, user name, passwords, download flash,
and reboot switch via this page. Table 6-5 provides field information for the Administrative Interface Page.
