Logged data includes information such as statistics and user activity.

Performance monitoring is performed on the NFM-P using service and equipment related statistics counters from the managed routers. You can collect statistics for:

Service access point statistics are used to measure usage on each service queue, which can be rolled up for billing. These accounting records can be used to determine customer service usage, and to feed into a billing application. Network port statistics are used to measure usage within each forwarding class queue, as defined on the network port. This information can be used to track link utilization and network traffic patterns and trends to help capacity planning and traffic engineering efforts.

All statistics are collected within the counters of the individual service queues defined on the customer access port or the counters within forwarding classes queues defined on the network ports.

You can control how often the service access point statistical counters are collected and applied to all services. You can create accounting policies that determine which statistical classes, and counters within each class, are collected.

You can monitor equipment in near-real time using control plane, data forwarding plan, and device utilization statistics. Statistics counters are collected every 15 min by default against network equipment. You can apply policies per port if necessary, but the default counters should be sufficient.

When a network statistics collection policy is configured, counters are retrieved from the managed router MIBs using an SNMP getBulk command. For example, interface statistics correspond to the IF-MIB.
