Monitoring the Status of a Virtual Chassis
When you select a Virtual Chassis from the network tree in any view, four monitors are displayed that give at-a-glance information about the status and performance of the Virtual Chassis. Use this information to monitor the chassis as a whole, without reviewing each switch independently.
To locate the Virtual Chassis monitors:
- Click Monitor in the Network Director banner to ensure that you are in Monitor mode.
- Expand the network tree to expose the Virtual Chassis node.
- Select the Virtual Chassis in the network tree.
- Click the Equipment tab to display the four monitors.
- Click the Help icon on the monitor learn more about the purpose or fields on a monitor.
The four monitors are:
- Resource Utilization Monitor for Switches and Virtual Chassis, that provides information about the composition of the chassis, its members, and the location of neighboring switches.
- Status Monitor for Virtual Chassis, that provides information about the uptime, IP address, and hostname of the Virtual Chassis.
- Resource Monitor For Wireless LAN Controllers, that provides a graphical representation of CPU usage and memory consumption.
- Port Status Monitor, that provides port level status information.
