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 the following figure.
Click the arrows to expand and contract the list of ports per slot.
• Switches such as the Brocade 300, 5100, 5300, 6510, 6520, VA-40FC, 7800 Extension Switch,
7840 Extension Switch 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 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 the Brocade 300, 5100, 5300, VA-40FC, 7800 Extension Switch, and the Brocade Encryption
Switch, the X-axis scales up to 8.0 Gbps in increments of 0.8 Gbps.
• For the Brocade 6505, 6510, and the 6520, the X-axis scales up to 16.0 Gbps in increments of 0.16
Gbps.
• For the Brocade 7840 Extension Switch, the X-axis scales up to 40.0 Gbps in increments of 0.4
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.
The following figure shows how to access the list of Advanced Performance Monitoring graphs using
Web Tools with the EGM license. This example displays the graphs available in the Performance
Monitor window with either the Advanced Performance Monitor license or the Fabric Vision license
installed. Note that the slot number is identified.
