2.3.4.2.1 Capacity Management Indicators
In preparing reports for dissemination to Information Systems
and user management, it is important that the measures
reported are understandable and pertinent to the subject
being reported. The data elements listed below best
represent the data elements you may use to report network
service levels. These elements are discussed in detail in
Appendix B, which contains the Network (SNT) and the NetView
Session (NVS) Information Areas.
