Performance reports

Performance reports allow you to view the last hour of performance data that has been collected by the monitoring system for diagnostic purposes. In addition, the Device Summarization, Interface Summarization, and Interface Availability Summarization reports allow you to view any historical performance data that has been collected by the monitoring system. View trend and topN charts for data to gain insight on short term behaviors.

To access the Performance reports, complete the following steps. Click the Reporting icon and select Common Reporting. Within the widget, select Network Manager. A list of folders display. These folders contain all Cognos reports for your access. Then click Performance Reports.

Note: The amount of historical data that the system can store and, consequently, the amount of historical data that the Performance reports can display, is restricted by default to preserve report performance. You can increase the storage limit for historical performance data; however, this can lead to a degradation in the performance of the Performance reports.
