132 Monitoring and reporting events and status
Monitoring appliance status
Viewing status on the Network Security console
You can display the status of a 7100 Series node by clicking the node object in
the Network Security console. Similarly, you can display sensor status and link
information by clicking an interface object in the console. In both cases, the
information is displayed in the right pane of the console window.
Certain status fields are displayed as averages. The values are recalculated for
each time period known as the statistics interval. The length of the statistics
interval is several seconds.
If an interface, interface group, or in-line pair is running at a higher bandwidth,
Symantec Network Security starts multiple sensor processes to handle the
expected throughput. It can start up to four sensor processes. When you click
the interface object, the status display in the right pane includes a column for
each sensor process and a column for the aggregate values. Some, but not all
parameters have values for each sensor process.
