Graph Types
Reporter provides five basic types of graphs:
● Protocol Distribution graphs let you see the protocol mix on your
network.
You can request a graph showing all data in aggregate (a single data
value for each protocol for the entire time span), or ask for a graph
showing protocol use over time, using the interval you specify. In addi-
tion, you can limit the graph to the protocols used most often.
● Top N graphs show the top talkers (source hosts), top listeners (desti-
nation hosts), or top pairs (conversations between two hosts).
As with Protocol Distribution, you can request a graph showing all data
in aggregate (a single data value for each talker, listener, or pair for the
entire time span), or ask for a graph showing values over time, using
the interval you specify.
You can also request a protocol breakdown for each host, showing the
protocols used most or a single specified protocol.
● Network Health graphs show network statistics over time, based on
30-second or 30-minute intervals. In addition, you can choose to graph
a baseline for a particular statistic. These graphs are similar to the
Historical Statistics daily and monthly options described in “Historical
Statistics” on page 475.
The available statistics depend on the media type: Ethernet, token-
ring, FDDI, or WAN. Note that there are many kinds of statistics avail-
able for WAN.
● Response Profile graphs show response measurement data over time
for targets created on LANProbes or IRAs by Internetwork Response
Manager (IRM), using 5- or 30-minute intervals. You can choose to
graph average response time, conformance of average response to a
specified value, minimum and maximum response times, availability
percentage, and retransmission percentage. In addition, you can choose
to graph a baseline for a particular statistic.
Response Profile graphs are available only for HP-UX.
