<strong>COMNET</strong> <strong>III</strong> Reports and Statistics<br />

1.1 Overview<br />

<strong>COMNET</strong> <strong>III</strong> allows many more variables to be monitored during the course of a simulation<br />

than what is reported in the output reports. It is possible to collect more detailed information<br />

about the behavior of objects (nodes, links, traffic sources, etc.) in a model by turning on<br />

various statistics monitors. Most, but not all objects in <strong>COMNET</strong> <strong>III</strong> have statistics monitors.<br />

To turn on the statistics monitors for an object, it is necessary to edit the object and click<br />

on the Statistics button displayed on the various dialogs.<br />

1.1.1 Selecting Statistics Requests<br />

Clicking on the Statistics button opens a particular set of Statistics Requests that can be<br />

turned on to collect information during the simulation.<br />

Turning on statistics requests enables the collection of raw observation data. This data can<br />

then be plotted, analyzed for percentiles or exported to other statistics tools, such as Excel.<br />

If you select a request and click on the Edit button, <strong>COMNET</strong> <strong>III</strong> presents the following dialog.<br />
