Table 13 lists each graph and indicates the supported port types for each graph. The port selection
columns for each graph displays the supported ports.
The labeling of the axes in the graphs depends on the switch type:
• For the Brocade DCX 8510-8, DCX 8510-4, and the DCX and DCX-4S enterprise-class
platforms, slot numbers are displayed with expansion arrows next to them, as shown in Figure
20 on page 107. Click the arrows to expand and contract the list of ports per slot.
• Switches such as the Brocade 300, 5100, 5300, 6510, 8000, VA-40FC, 7800 Extension, and
the Brocade Encryption Switch do not have slot numbers because they have no blade FRUs,
and therefore there is no need for slot numbering.
• For Brocade the Brocade DCX 8510-8, DCX 8510-4, and the DCX and DCX-4S enterprise-class
platforms, the X-axis scales up to 409.6 Gbps in multiples of 2.
• For Brocade 300, 5100, 5300, VA-40FC, 6510, 8000, 7800 Extension, and the Brocade
Encryption Switch, the X-axis scales up to 8.0 Gbps in increments of 0.8 Gbps.
Port throughput utilization is represented by a horizontal bar for each selected port The horizontal
bar gets longer or shorter depending on the percent utilization for that port at the last poll time.
Thin short vertical intersecting bars give a historical perspective by representing the highest and
lowest values reached for each selected port since the graph was opened. A third bar between
them represents the average of all values polled.
NOTE
Virtual ports on logical switches cannot be graphed.
