Switch Side View

This view shows device information as well as ping and bandwidth information. This view is not restricted to switches but devices that have child nodes (e.g. hubs, hypervisors, APs, PLCs).

 

 

There is a side view dedicated for switches broken into two parts.

Single Device Details

Contains to standard device properties. See Device Side View

 

Sideview Aggregate Details

Contains ping and bandwidth data (commulative) for all devices connected to this device including:

It also has a muti-device threshold graph where you can anaylize how the ping and bandwidth data behavior for child nodes. See Threshold Graphs to learn more about these graphs.

At the bottom of the side view there is a device selector containing one entry for each of the connected children showing its IP address and Device Name.

To alter the behavior of the multi-device graph select one of the following button combinations:

Pick a Type: 

Intermediate: The Multi-Device Graph calculates and shows history for both switches and devices

Switches: The Multi-Device Graph calculates and shows history for switches only

Devices: The Multi-Device Graph calculates and shows history for devices only

Pick a Range:

Select All: Selects all devices for the type above

Unselect All: Unselects all devices for the type above

You can also manually select individual nodes by first clicking "Unselect All" then manually selecting just the devices you want in the Muti-Device Graph

Selection

The main method of selection is clicking on a device showing child nodes. In this case all the devices connected to and below this device relative to the IntraVUE™ host computer are displayed together.

An alternate method of selection is to select several devices and this will allow you to view just the selected devices in the Multiple Device Side View.
