Bar Graph Display
The Performance View provides a graphical display of performance for all ports.
Each bar graph in the upper portion of the view panel displays the level of
transmit/receive activity for the port. This information updates every five seconds.
Each bar graph shows the percentage of link utilization for the port. A red arrow marks
the highest utilization since the opening of the Performance View. If the system
detects activity on a port, it represents minimal activity with one bar.
