Network Interface Overview (PI_NET)
- Organization of this page
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 OS of the monitored host is Windows, Solaris, AIX, or Linux, and if this record is collected in an environment where IPv4 and IPv6 coexist, summarized information for both IPv4 and IPv6 is collected.
-
If the OS of the monitored host is HP-UX, and if 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.
-
Information is not collected if TargetType is set to icmp in the monitoring target settings.
