Network Interface Overview (PI_NET)

Function

The Network Interface Overview (PI_NET) record stores performance data, taken at a specific interval, about the network interface for the monitored host. This is a multi-instance record.

Notes

• If the connection to the monitored host fails, the information cannot be collected.
• If the monitored host is Windows, Solaris, AIX, or Linux, and this record is collected in an environment where IPv4 and IPv6 coexist, a summary of the information for IPv4 and IPv6 is collected.
• If the monitored host is HP-UX and this record is collected in an environment where IPv4 and IPv6 coexist, information is collected separately for IPv4 and IPv6. In an IPv4 environment, IPv4: is attached to the beginning of the ID, while in an IPv6 environment, IPv6: is attached to the beginning of the ID.
