To gain an initial understanding of your network, you can use the IP Summary Display. After the region is active for a while, the display becomes populated with data. You can use the display as your starting point to monitor the health of your network.
The IP Summary Display provides a single place from where you view a snapshot of the most useful information about your network environment. Data on this display is sourced from the Packet Analyzer. The display provides the following complementary perspectives:
Provides an exception-based perspective of your network environment. The summary compares a set of monitored IP characteristics with alert threshold conditions. It charts the values of those conditions and reflects their values through the following statuses: OK, WARNING, and PROBLEM.
Provides an activity-based perspective of your IP environment. The summary provides traffic throughput statistics and identifies the most active application, port, and addresses.
Provides information about the recent and cumulative (Enterprise Extender) EE traffic throughput.
Provides a graphical representation of how many alerts are outstanding for each alert severity. On focal point regions, alerts from linked regions are included.
Typically, the display appears at the bottom of the primary menu when you log on to the region. If the display is not there, enter the /IPSUM shortcut at the Command prompt to access the display.
