A single word	`cat`	Topics that contain the word "cat". You will also find its grammatical variations, such as "cats".
A phrase. You can specify that the search results contain a specific phrase.	`"cat food"` (quotation marks)	Topics that contain the literal phrase "cat food" and all its grammatical variations. Without the quotation marks, the query is equivalent to specifying an OR operator, which finds topics with one of the individual words instead of the phrase.

Configure SNMP Line Graph Actions

[This is the context-sensitive help for User Interface Configuration: Menu Items tab: Menu Items Form: Menu Items Contexts form: SNMP Line Graph form.]

The User Interface Configuration option enables you to configure Line Graphs that are available from the NNMi Actions menu structure. These graphs display real-time SNMP data for a selected node or interface. This feature is useful when you want to monitor a numeric MIB or MIB Expression value for a node or interface over a specified time interval. For example, you might want to monitor network traffic using the ifOutOctets MIB variable for a specified node. Or you might want to graph a MIB variable, such as Interface ifInOctets, to verify that a problem has been fixed for a specified interface before closing an incident.

Note The node for which you want to display information must support SNMPv1, SNMPv2c, or SNMPv3.

NNMi provides a set of Line Graphs for nodes and for interfaces.

To configure additional Line Graphs:

Navigate to the Menu Items form.
1. From the workspace navigation panel, select the Configuration workspace.
2. Expand User Interface.
3. Select Menu Items.
4. Do one of the following:
  - To create a Graph Action, click the New icon, and continue.
  - To edit an existing Graph Action, double-click the row representing the configuration you want to edit, and continue.
  - To delete a Graph Action, select a row, and click the Delete icon.
5. Provide the Basic details for this menu item (see Configure Menu Item Basic Details).
  
  Caution If the Author value is Network Node Manager, any changes are at risk of being overwritten in the future. See Author form for important information.
Select Menu Item Contexts.
Do one of the following:
1. To create a Menu Item Context, click the New icon, and continue.
2. To edit an existing Menu Item Context, double-click the row representing the configuration you want to edit, and continue.
3. To delete a Menu Item Context, select a row, and click the Delete icon.
Provide the graph details for this Graph (see Basics table).
Provide the MIB Specification information (see MIB Specification Form).
Click Save and Close to save and apply your changes and return to the Menu Item Context form.
Limit the use of the Action menu item:
- By object type (see Configure Menu Item Basic Details).
- By NNMi user role (see Configure Menu Item Basic Details).
- By defining a filter for a subset of the chosen object-type instances (see Specify Optional Menu Item Enablement Filters).
Click Save and Close to save and apply your changes.

To test your changes to the Actions menu:

If required, access a view or form that contains the appropriate object type.
If required, select an object instance.
Click the Actions menu.
Verify your Graph is working.

Basics
Attribute	Description
Graph Title	Type a meaningful and descriptive title to display above the graph. The maximum length is 255 characters. Alpha-numeric characters, spaces, and periods are permitted.
Y-axis Label	Enter the text string to describe the Y-axis data displayed. NNMi displays this label vertically along the left-side of the Y axis. The maximum length is 255 characters. Alpha-numeric characters, spaces, and periods are permitted. If you do not want to display a label for the Y-axis, leave this attribute blank.
Number of Lines	Specify the number of lines that will be initially displayed on the graph. An operator can display additional lines when viewing the Line Graph. To use the Default value specified in the User Interface Configuration, leave this attribute value blank. The default value that NNMi provides is 20.
Maximum Time Range (Hours)	The maximum time period in hours in which to retain the Line Graph data point sets. When the Maximum Time Range number is reached, NNMi discards the oldest data point sets so that it can display the most recent data for the time range you specify. For example, if you enter 24 hours, when 24 hours has passed, NNMi removes data starting with the initial data point set so that it can display data for the most recent 24-hour interval. Enter a decimal number indicating the maximum number of hours in which to retain the Line Graph data. If you specify 0 (zero), NNMi determines the best setting for the Maximum Time Range based on the Poling Interval specified.
Update Interval (Seconds)	The Update Interval in seconds to be used for collecting data to be displayed on the graph. Note You can change the Update Interval for the current session when NNMi displays the graph. To use the Default value specified in the User Interface Configuration, leave this attribute value blank.
Fast Start	Select Fast Start when you want to increase the initial Polling Interval so that the initial data appears more quickly on the graph. When you select this option, NNMi increases the initial Polling Interval and then gradually decreases the Polling Interval until it reaches the Polling Interval configured for the graph.
Enable Cumulative Launch	If enabled, any object attribute references in the Full URL are populated with values from all selected objects. The multiple values are separated by a comma character. For example, if the attribute is "name", the URL results would be "name1,name2,name3". If disabled, the action launches a separate web page instance for each selected object. See Attributes per Object Type for Full URLs for details about including object attributes in your Full URL.
Browser Width	Optional. When empty, the default browser settings are used. If the value is 1 or more, the browser is launched with this number of pixels wide.
Browser Height	Optional. When empty, the default browser settings are used. If the value is 1 or more, the browser is launched with this number of pixels high.
Add Browser Decorations	If enabled, the web browser toolbar and menus appear when a user launches your URL. If disabled, the web browser has no toolbar or menu when a user launches your URL.
