Generating Device and Interface Reports
LMS 4.2 contains a set of predefined system generated reports called Device Reports and Interface Reports. These reports run periodically and are stored in the server.
These Reports provide detailed information about the devices polled. The Reports page provides information only on the Top-10 and Bottom-10 devices. The Top-10 and Bottom-10 devices are devices that have the highest or lowest utilization or availability value.
The information for the last 24 hours is generated as a report. This information is updated every one hour, by default. You can change this frequency in the Admin page.
Only the recently generated 24-hour report is stored in the server as a Quick Report. By default, only the CSV and HTML version of the report is generated. You can also configure to archive all the generated reports in a PDF, HTML, and CSV format to a directory location. You need to set a default directory location to which these archived reports are published. For more information, see Set Report Publish Location under Administration of Cisco Prime Lan Management Solution 4.2.
Table 6-1 describes the list of predefined Device and Interface Reports available in Cisco Prime LMS 4.2. A report is generated for each System-defined templates.
