13.7. Interface Drilldown
Describes the Interface drilldown tool that appears when you select “Drilldown” against any interface in the Routers and Interfaces Tool
The Interface Drilldown tool looks slightly different depending on if Interface Tracking is enabled or not.
- With Interface Tracker — when interface has the tracker (shows up with eye icon) enabled. You will see addition detail such as Hosts In/Out/Total and Apps In/Out/Total trends.
- Without Interface Tracker — without interface tracker you will be shown totals of Host and Apps In/Out/Total but you will not be able to see Time Series trends of these counters.
