Performance Manager WindowDetailed Description
The Performance Manager window displays three areas: Monitored Attributes, Time Period, and
Summary. The Performance Manager window also displays three tabs: Line Chart, and Table Display.
Monitored Attributes
The monitored attributes list at the left of the window allows you to select the specific attribute you wish
to view performance information for. The fields in this list change, depending upon the type of interface
that you launched Performance Manager from. For example, if your selected interface is was an ATM
line card, you will be able to select all the performance fields that can be found on the following
performance windows: SONET Performance, and Generic Performance. Both of these technologies
apply to ATM line cards, therefore all performance information for both technologies is listed in the
Performance Manager. This list is extensive.
