Using the TSX-1620 Bridge View
Creating Bridge Traffic Charts, Graphs and Meters
The Bridge application uses the SPMA Charts, Graphs and Meters tools to depict
bridge statistics describing activity at the bridge-port level. Once running,
however, a pie chart, graph or meter is independent from the application where it
was started. Although the windows you open to create pie charts, graphs and
meters have unique variable lists, the procedures for creating a pie chart, a graph
or a meter are the same.

NOTE
Graphing capabilities are provided by an application that is included in HP Network
Node Manager and IBM NetView; therefore, graphs are only available when SPMA is
run in conjunction with one of these network management platforms. If you are running
SPMA in a stand-alone mode or in conjunction with SunNet Manager, no graphing
capabilities are available and no graph-related options will be displayed on buttons or
menus. Note that the screens displayed in this guide will include the graph-related
options where they are available; please disregard these references if they do not apply.
