Device - Performance: Ping Availability

This device performance report displays ping availability data collected during the selected time period from the device displayed at the top of the report.

Below the date/time picker is a graph showing device ping availability for the selected time period. Each point on the graph corresponds with an entry in the graph data table below.

Split Second Graph - Real-Time Ping Response Time

Under the main report graph is a Split Second Graph that displays real-time ping availability data.

Below the Split Second Graph, the report displays general ping availability information for the device collected during the selected time period:

• Packets Sent. The total number of packets sent from the device during the selected time period.
• Packets Lost. The total number of packets lost from the device during the selected time period.
• Percent Packets Lost. The percentage of packets lost from the device during the selected time period.
• Poll Time (minutes). Amount of total time (in minutes) that passed during the time period selected.
• Time Unavailable (minutes). Amount of total time (in minutes) that the device was unavailable in the group.
• Percent Available. The total availability percentage for the device.

The Raw Data table displays all of the data samples that were collected during the time period selected above. The data for this report follows the roll-up settings in Program Options. Report Data (in the WhatsUp Gold console) so raw data that has already been rolled up to hourly is replaced by an hourly entry in this table. Each entry in this table corresponds to a point in the report graph.

Note: Split Second Graphs are not available in WhatsUp Gold Standard Edition.

Note: Split Second Graphs are not available in VMware host reports.
