8.4. Statistics
RipEX2 unit permanently monitors various system 'channels'. There are several types of those channels:
Physical interfaces (Ethernet ports, serial ports, radio interface, additional module interface (e.g. LTE
module) when installed), virtual interfaces (e.g. VLAN interfaces) and HW sensors (CPU temperature,
supply voltage, ...). Monitored values are stored in the internal database.
Statistics page provides aggregated statistical data from this internal database. Data can be both dis-
played and downloaded in CSV format. This file format is suitable to be imported to any 3rd party
spreadsheet program for further analysis.
There are two different options how to display statistics data:
Historical
Statistics counters are aggregated over the defined time interval. The interval is defined by two
time stamps "From" and "To".
Differential
Statistics counters are aggregated between the counter reset and the current time (the moment
when the Display button was pressed). Reset is triggered by a unit reboot or by the Reset statistics
button.
Reset statistics button
- initiates the Differential statistic counters reset. Such a reset does not
affect normal statistic counters - i.e. the Historical statistics is not affected by such a Reset at all.
Length of statistics data
Statistics data are stored in the internal database. There is a fixed memory size allocated for the stat-
istics data - the database is limited by number of records. As a result of this, the length of statistics
history - how old records are available - depends on the actual network configuration: The more mon-
itored values, the higher the rate of new recorded values, the shorter the available history.
Some sets of monitored values are constant (Ethernet ports and their counters) or do not rise to a high
values (COM ports, Terminal servers and their counters). What affects the length of available history
