Traffic Data Collector Settings
Starting with HP TopTools for Hubs & Switches version 5, you can collect data
from all segments in your network automatically, or collect data from selected
ports of a device (manual mode). With manual selection, you can also choose
the type of data to be collected, for example, Extended RMON (X-RMON) data
or just traffic data.
Setting the Traffic Data Collector to manual mode is advantageous if you have
a large network and don’t want to monitor every segment. You don’t have to
wait for a lengthy Topology process to complete in manual mode; you can
configure the specific segments you want to monitor, up to a total of 2000
segments.
To access the Traffic Data Collector Configuration, click on the Performance
button in the navigation frame. Select Traffic Data Collector Settings from the
menu. The Performance - Traffic Data Collector Settings page appears with
the Configuration tab displayed.
