After you have created QoS policies that manage the traffic through the switch, you can use the QoS monitor to determine whether the application performance meets your expectations.
The QoS monitor allows you to display the traffic packet counts in a real-time or a snapshot display for the specified ports.
Note
On a Summit X440 stack master slot, the QoS monitor displays the traffic packet count only for data traffic that is switched or routed. It does not capture the CPU/System-generated packet count.On BlackDiamond 8800 a-, c-, and e-series modules, only one port per slot or module can be monitored at any one time. This restriction does not apply to BlackDiamond 8900 series modules.
On BlackDiamond X8 series switches, BlackDiamond 8900 xm-series modules and Summit X670 series switches, QP1-4 support one unicast and one multicast queue for each QoS profile. The QoS monitor counters for QP1-4 tally the unicast and multicast traffic for these QoS profiles. QoS monitor counters for QP5-8 tally only the unicast traffic for these QoS profiles.
