The Performance and Availability Monitor shows, at a glance, the status of any monitored device (IP address) in the network. Devices are separated into four categories: unavailable devices, devices with packet loss, devices exceeding the response time limit, and devices without problems.
Each device is assigned a rating. The rating is a bright, shining sun if the device is available and no response time problems are found. If any device exceeds the response time limit, the rating is a sun with a few clouds on it. If a device is experiencing packet loss, the sun is shown with clouds threatening to rain. If a device is unavailable, the rating is clouds pouring down rain. For each monitored device, the specific response time or packet sizes lost may also be viewed.
