Part 2 LAN and WAN metrics: Ethernet - access method, frame composition, error conditions; Token Ring - frame composition; SMMP - management stations, MIBs, Agents, the global naming tree (OID). Part 3 Accessing Cisco performance measurements: router - via commands as well as SNMP MIB data; switch - via commands as well as SNMP MIB data. Part 4 Using router performance related commands: statistics on serial ports; statistics on LAN ports; CPU statistics; memory statistics; monitoring example. Part 5 Using switch performance related commands: statistics on Serial ports; statistics on LAN ports; CPU statistics; memory statistics N2 - This is a field guide that network managers can use to assure that their routers run at peak performance levels and help keep critical applications running smoothly. Examples of LAN and WAN error conditions -- contains practical real examples of error conditions and their potential resolution that can be used to solve problems quickly.-- How to use routers and switches to measure traffic flow -- Shows readers how to measure traffic flow, which provides the information necessary for planning for various network modifications.-- Monitor SLAs -- will help network administrators monitor the popular Service Level Agreements that major RBOCs, CLECs and ISPs use.-- Problem solving methodology -- describes potential pitfalls and how to avoid them-- Shows how to monitor router performance-- Defines different metrics ER -
