Summary View
Summary View is Surveyor’s global monitoring tool for network data. You can
view real-time data from any local resource or any resource you can connect to on
the network. You can filter the data before viewing by applying a capture filter.
Each resource is viewed through its own window within Summary View. You can
open windows for as many resources as you wish. Furthermore, each resource
window can be displayed in six different views.
There are six tabs available for each module window within Summary View:
To change the Summary View for a resource, click the appropriate tab at the bottom
of the resource window. Using the tabs, you can get a single monitoring view, see
transmit or receive counters, view alarms set and alarms triggered for this resource,
or get a description of the resource (counters supported, etc.). The first tab contains
the monitoring view which can be configured to display any of the views listed on
the following page.
Multiple monitoring views are available from within Summary View. Each view
can display as a table or a chart, with the exception of Address Map View or Expert
Views. These two views only display as tables. Remember that in Summary View
the view you set applies to all resources.
The monitoring views are listed below.
• Utilization/Error
• Frame Size Distribution
