Network Segment Attributes

Use Network Segment attributes to monitor utilization and traffic statistics for data in a network segment. Data for this report is from the Microsoft Network Monitor. Network Segment is a multiple-instance attribute group. You cannot mix these attributes with those of any other multiple-instance group. HTTP Service attributes are only supported for Windows 2000 and earlier.


% Broadcast Frames The percentage of network bandwidth that is made up of broadcast traffic on this network segment. Valid values are positive integers in the range 0 to 100 (expressing a percentage). For example, to express 15% for the percentage of broadcast traffic on this segment, enter 15.

% Multicast Frames The percentage of network bandwidth that is made up of multicast traffic on this network segment. Valid values are positive integers in the range 0 to 100 (expressing a percentage). For example, to express 3.5% for the percentage of multicast traffic on this segment, enter 3.5.

% Network Utilization The percentage of network bandwidth in use of this network segment. Valid values are positive integers in the range 0 to 100 (expressing a percentage). For example, to express 4% for the percentage of network bandwidth on this segment, enter 4.

Broadcast Frames Received/sec The number of broadcast frames received per second on this network segment. Valid values are positive integers in the range 0 to 2147483647 and can include the use of the *AVG, *MIN, *MAX, or *SUM functions. For example, to express 70 for the number of broadcast frames received per second on this segment, enter 70.

Multicast Frames Received/sec The number of multicast frames received per second on this network segment. Valid format is a text string of up to 64 characters. For example, to express 23 for the number of multicast frames received per second on this segment, enter 23.

Network Segment Instance The instance name of the Network Interface object (Connection Name). Valid format is a text string of up to 64 characters.

System Name The network name of the source of this information. Valid format is a text string of up to 64 characters.

Timestamp The date and time the Tivoli Enterprise Monitoring Server samples the data. Standard 16-character date/time format (CYYMMDDHHMMSSmmm), where:

C

Century (0 for 20th, 1 for 21st)

YY

Year

MM

Month

DD

Day

HH

Hour

MM

Minute

SS

Second

mmm

Millisecond

Use simple text strings as described above. For example, enter 0971009130500000 to express October 9, 1997, 1:05:00 pm.

Total Bytes Received/sec The number of bytes received per second on this network segment. Valid values are positive integers in the range 0 to 2147483647 and can include the use of the *AVG, *MIN, *MAX, or *SUM functions. For example, to express 23,569 for the total number of bytes received per second on this segment, enter 23569.

Total Frames Received/sec The total number of frames received per second on this network segment. Valid values are positive integers in the range 0 to 2147483647 and can include the use of the *AVG, *MIN, *MAX, or *SUM functions. For example, to express 265 for the total number of frames received per second on this segment, enter 265.
