Riverbed QoS shaping policy reports
The NetProfiler reports statistics for inbound and outbound SteelHead traffic that has been shaped by SteelHead QoS shaping policies. It reports statistics by SteelHead appliances, by SteelHead sites, and by SteelHead QoS shaping policies. This enables you to gain both an overall view and detailed views of how your SteelHead QoS shaping policies are performing across your network.
The Reports > Riverbed QoS Shaping page is the primary source of these reports. This page opens with a navigation panel on the left displaying SteelHead appliances, SteelHead sites, and SteelHead QoS shaping classes. Select a SteelHead from the SteelHeads drop down list to see which sites and classes you can run reports for.
Navigation panel
The navigation panel shows an Aggregated Classes folder and a Sites folder. These can be expanded and collapsed.
The Aggregated Classes folder expands to list the SteelHead basic QoS shaping classes by name. Each class entry in this folder represents the aggregation of all traffic in that class for all sites defined on the selected SteelHead.
The Sites folder expands to display a list of all sites that have been properly defined on the selected SteelHead. You can run a report for each QoS class of each site.
