Metric table
The metric table can include some or all of the following: target version, default collection frequency, default warning threshold, default critical threshold, and alert text.
These metrics provide details on the throughput performance of each link (port-to-port connection) in the network, an aggregation of performance for Switch-to-Node and Switch-to-Switch link types, and total throughput performance of the network.
Link Type Performance
The metrics in this metric category describe the performance for Switch-to-Node and Switch-to-Switch link types.
