TATISTICS
menu provides information regarding the
top five talkers in each direction (Rx and Tx) based on their source IP ad-
dresses. This information is useful in diagnosing network problems. If a
user is experiencing slow response times, this screen shows whether the
problem is the result of the line not having enough total bandwidth to sup-
port the number of users, or if a small number of users are using excessive
amounts of bandwidth. Lower distribution percentages indicate that
there are too many users for that line. High distribution percentages indi-
cate that some users may be using an excessive amount of bandwidth
(possibly due to the type of applications they are using). See Figure 10-6
