Select this to determine whether the display for a device or port group will include all ports, or
only the top N ports (where N is initially fifteen). Click the icon to toggle between the red X, which
indicates the top N limitation is not in effect, and a green check, which indicates that the top N
ports are being displayed. The top N ports are displayed in order from highest (largest percent
utilization or largest total errors) to lowest. The number of ports (N) is a user-configurable setting.
This option is available only for multi-port displays.
Select this to display the data as a line graph. This chart type is especially useful when displaying
individual errors for a single port.
Select this to display the data as a pie chart. This chart type is available only when you are
displaying statistics for multiple ports on a device, device slot, or in a port group. The maximum
number of slices in the pie is a user-configurable setting. It is initially set to display 10 slices.
Select this to display the data as a bar chart. A 3D bar chart is the default for all chart displays.

such as graph and data colors, the sampling interval, or the number of ports in a top N display.
