The historical policy analysis graphs do not show the effect of traffic dropping for reasons other than QoS policy actions, such as dropping because of full queues. Therefore, it is possible that the traffic volume shown for an interface will be greater than the capacity of the interface. In this case, if you set the vertical axis to percentage, the traffic volume for the interface will exceed 100% of the interface's capacity.
Use this page to view data that shows how much traffic matched the policies and whether it was transmitted or dropped. You can customize the page with the customization controls.

Each graph includes a legend that shows the time period represented by each point on the poll time (horizontal) axis. The correlation between the filters shown in this graph and the filter rules configured in the policy is not exact. Whenever possible, QPM translates the filter rules configured in QPM to modular CLI match statements, but there are cases in which only ACL translation can reflect the filter definition, resulting in multiple filter rules being combined into one match statement (rules combined by OR become separate match statements; rules combined by AND are combined into one match statement). This data is obtained from the CBQoSMatchPrePolicy MIB variable. |
