Analyzing a WAN Link with Observer 
The WAN Load by DLCI mode in dial view shows transfer rate, CRC error rate, 
FECN/BECN frame rates graphed on dial meters.
DLCI CIR Setup
Click Settings and then the DLCI CIR Setup tab to display a dialog that lets you enter 
DLCIs and their corresponding Committed Information Rates. You can eithe enter the 
DLCIs manually, or automatically add DLCIs from Observer’s current alias list.
Graph View
The WAN Load display in graph view shows these same statistics (transfer rate, CRC 
error rate, and FECN/BECN frame rates) as superimposed spike meters. The Committed 
Information Rate (CIR) is also shown, allowing you to view the network activity against 
the baseline performance you have contracted to receive from your WAN service provider
You can select line, point, or bar-style meter, and the colors for each statistic by right-
clicking on the chart. The dropdown menus at the top of the display let you select what 
DLCIs to view, and how the chart should be scaled (linearly, logarithmically, or 
autoscale). For linear scales, you can also set the CIR or the line rate as the maximum 
value for the chart.
List View Display Properties
The Network Activity List view has only one display property option. To reset the 
columns to their default widths, click on the icon or go to Mode Commands->Display 
Properties
 (or simply right-click on the display). 
To reset column widths to their default values, click Yes. To leave them in their present 
state, click No.
