Note: Regardless of these settings, the graph values are always converted to represent a value per second (when applicable). For example, the packets per second for IP addresses will always be a value literally per second even if the resolution is larger or smaller than one second. The displayed value is scaled to match this view. Especially with sub-second resolution this might be misleading. | Note: Regardless of these settings, the graph values are always converted to represent a value per second (when applicable).

For instance, if there is a network element sending one packet per second and the resolution is set to 100 milliseconds, the <u>value shown in the graph</u> might be shown as 10 packets per second as each sample point is scaled to represent an value per second.<br>For a detailed investigation it is recommended to always select a specific time interval and look at the (packet) counters shown in all statistics since these are unscaled and represent the actual values. | |||
