Application Views

This section describes the main Application view and the associated application-specific subviews available for models of 3COM LANplex switch devices in SPECTRUM.

Access: From the Icon Subviews menu for the Device icon, select Application.

When a device model is created, SPECTRUM automatically creates models for each of the major and minor applications supported by the device. The Application view identifies all of these application models, shows their current condition status, and provides access to application-specific subviews.

Figure 9 shows an Application view in its default mode (Icon) where each of the application models is represented by an Application icon. The Application icons are arranged hierarchically under a Device icon, with major applications in the top row and their respective minor applications stacked directly below.

If you prefer to see applications displayed by name only, in a single vertical list, select View > Mode > List.

Performance Views

This section provides brief descriptions of the Performance views available for the 3COM LANplex switch devices in SPECTRUM.

Performance views display performance statistics in terms of a set of transmission attributes, e.g., cell rates, frame rates, % error, etc. A typical view is shown in Figure 10. The instantaneous condition of each transmission attribute is recorded in a graph. The statistical information for each attribute is presented in the adjacent table.

Generally, you determine performance at the device level through Performance views accessed from the Device and Application icons. You determine performance at the port/interface level through Performance views accessed from Interface icons.

For more information on Performance views, refer to the SPECTRUM Views documentation.

The following paragraphs list the performance attributes displayed for each Performance view supported by this management module.
