132 Monitoring and reporting events and status Monitoring appliance status Viewing status on the Network Security console You can display the status of a 7100 Series node by clicking the node object in the Network Security console. Similarly, you can display sensor status and link information by clicking an interface object in the console. In both cases, the information is displayed in the right pane of the console window. Certain status fields are displayed as averages. The values are recalculated for each time period known as the statistics interval. The length of the statistics interval is several seconds. If an interface, interface group, or in-line pair is running at a higher bandwidth, Symantec Network Security starts multiple sensor processes to handle the expected throughput. It can start up to four sensor processes. When you click the interface object, the status display in the right pane includes a column for each sensor process and a column for the aggregate values. Some, but not all parameters have values for each sensor process. This section describes the following: ■ Node status parameters ■ Interface status parameters ■ In-line pair status parameters ■ Interface group status parameters Node status parameters The following status fields are displayed when you click a 7100 Series node: Table 10-1 Node status parameters Parameter Explanation Status Information ■ Uptime The length of time the node has been up and running. ■ Load avgs The amount of network traffic seen on all monitoring interfaces, averaged over the last statistics interval. ■ Cert. expiration The expiration date of the generated software encryption certificate on the appliance. ■ Last database sync The last time that the databases were synchronized with the master node. ■ CPU1 Temperature (Celsius) Current operating temperature of CPU1. ■ CPU2 Temperature (Celsius) Current operating temperature of CPU2.
