IP historical performance monitoring
Historical performance monitoring allows you create data collectors by choosing MIB object and by
choosing or creating mathematical expressions. You can also configure an historical data graph or
table to display data. The following options and features are available for obtaining historical
performance data:
• Define a data collector by mapping a MIB (Management Information Base) object to a unit
name (refer to “MIB data collectors” on page 1535).
• Specify and adjust threshold values and polling intervals, and set time schedules for data
collection. Historical data is recorded in a database for retrieval in the form of graphs and
tables.
• Store records for each port.
• Create a custom graph or table display for data by defining options such as the following:
- Selecting a product for displaying data.
- Selecting measures to collect.
- Modifying collectors.
- Plotting minimum and maximum values.
- Displaying data points or polling intervals.
- Displaying events.
- Selecting a graph or table format.
- Enabling granularity of data to display.
• 5 minutes granularity for last 8 days
• 30 minutes granularity for last 14 days
• 2 hour granularity for last 30 days
• 1 day granularity for last 730 days
- Displaying advanced monitoring service (AMS) violation events
- Providing a period for plotting the graph or table.
