Auto Scale adjusts the axis value based on the minimum and maximum values of
the data being displayed.
Fixed Scale shows the data on the scale you enter in the Min and Max boxes.
Tip: Auto scale is the best option when the minimum and maximum chart values are
unknown.
Graph Type. Select the type of graph you would like to display. To learn about the
various types of graphs available, please see Graph Types (on page 610).
Trend Type. Select the type of trend line you want to see on the report. This line
shows the average value of data for the duration the graph is displayed in the Web
browser. Choose None, Line, or Curve.
Dimensions. Select the dimension in which you would like the graph to display.
Select 3D or 2D to change the dimensions of the lines/bars in your charts.
Refresh interval (seconds). Enter an amount of time (in seconds) for how often you
would like the graph to refresh. Essentially, when the graph refreshes, it is polling for
more data and then displaying that new data.
Note: The faster the refresh interval, the more granular the chart data will be. Slower poll
intervals will result in data that is more normalized and will have less detail.
Data interval (seconds). Enter an amount of time (in seconds) for how long you
would like the data in the graph to be displayed. Think of this as the X axis for the
graph.
Note: Specifying larger values for this setting is allowed, but may adversely affect the refresh
interval for a graph. The optimum value is determined by the memory and speed of your
Web server.

Split Second Graph: Memory dashboard report
This dashboard report displays real-time memory utilization for a SNMP enabled device. The
device must have SNMP credentials specified in Device Properties > Credentials. This report
queries the specified device to determine if it can report memory utilization and then polls
and graphs it for the duration that the report is loaded in the Web browser.
Note: When viewing information for devices running Microsoft Windows, information
gathered via WMI is displayed in real time. Information gathered by SNMP, however, may
reflect a delay of one minute or more. This delay is caused by a limitation in how often
Microsoft Windows updates SNMP values.
