Real-Time Reports are available in both tabular and graphical format. The tabular format uses the table report elements that are common in most reporting environments. It allows for the quick and easy location of critical information. The graphical format provides the same information in a format suitable for presentations. Real-Time reports also includes the Enterprise Extender Expert, which is only available in tabular format and provides data on the current EE UDP workload by port. The graphical format (charts) provide information on the following:
·
Real-time network response time between enterprise hosts
and any
other TCP/IP connection
·
Real-time workload information for the enterprise TCP/IP
hosts such
as the number of sessions, total number of bytes transmitted since
last monitoring interval, and average number of bytes transmitted
· Workload and network performance trending are provided in real time. The information can be summarized by time or by host.
· Enterprise Extender UDP information
On the following pages, both report formats are provided for each reporting function. Both formats may be printed via the browser functions.
Note: For information on report options, please refer to the appendices.
NV4IP views the TCP/IP network performance from the enterprise level to the remote user connection. Performance indicators are available for workload, usage, and response time. The Real-Time Reports are available for gathering and monitoring network data in the daily work environment. The Real-Time and History reports are available as soon as the Host Monitor has been active for a period of time. The SessionLog Expert allows viewing of near time or current time sessions, that is, sessions that are either currently live or have recently happened.
To view a Real-Time Report, perform the following steps:
1. From the Real-Time Reports window, click the Workload or Performance Report you wish to view:

If you are prompted to enter or select additional information (such as entering an IP Address or selecting a resource), provide the information and click the appropriate button.
The Real-Time Report screen for your selection appears.
2. Enter AutoRefresh parameters for viewing the selected report if you would like data at your workstation to be automatically refreshed at specified intervals. You must set two Options to activate this feature at your workstation:
· AutoRefresh rate
· Refresh Interval (in seconds)
3. The report screen appears. Real-Time Reports provide three categories of reporting:
Workload |
Shows the workload by sessions and bytes per application(s) creating the most demand on your system. Available reports are: - Connect Expert - Details Selected/Port/Address - Top Applications Sessions - Top Applications Bytes - Selected Application Session - Selected Application Bytes - Client Workload |
Performance |
Provides information on the average response times for a particular address and the network, as well as providing information in terms of overall network performance. - Network Health (Network) - Response Time - Selected Response Time (Resource) |
Enterprise Extender Expert |
Provides data on the current UDP EE workload by for each of the assigned EE ports. |
