Different number of buffer types SolarWind versus Cisco

Tomas

Network Performance Monitor knows 5 types of buffers ( switch | CPU Load and Memory Use | Memory/Buffer Failures):

Small (blue), Medium (violet), Big (cyan), Large (green), Huge (yelow).

Cisco switches know 6 types o buffers (see show buffers command) :

Small, Middle, Big, VeryBig, Large, Huge.

Does it mean that very big buffers are not scanned? How to understand it?

I have Version 8.2 May 2005, Network Performance Monitor Engine 8.2.34, Database Engine: MS Jet

Thanks in advance, Tomas

Yes true, only 5 buffers. To my knowledge it is the VeryBig that NPM does not poll-

Okay, and the reason NPM does not poll the VeryBig buffer is why? I would think this would have been added some time ago to the product. I have always been curious to know.

Can someone answer this question? It looks like Orion is missing VeryBig buffers.
