MetaSwitch Statistics

The MetaSwitch Statistics object is a child of the MetaSwitch object. There is a single instance of the MetaSwitch Statistics object. The MetaSwitch Statistics object does not have any fields or pushbuttons, and you cannot configure or manage it. It exists simply as a way of grouping its 'Summary Period' child objects.

Counter type statistics record the total count of events (or time) during the particular time interval. High and Low type statistics record the highest or lowest value of the field reached during the particular time interval. Gauge type statistics show the average value of the field during the particular time interval, with a sampling rate of once every 5 minutes. Gauge statistics for the current and previous 5 minute time intervals are therefore a single snapshot value.

There are eight 'Summary Period' MetaSwitch Statistics objects, which each display statistics collected over a different time interval. Note that the summary periods are preconfigured; you cannot change the summary periods or create new 'Summary Period' MetaSwitch Statistics objects. All the 'Summary Period' MetaSwitch Statistics objects have the same fields. All the fields are read only and there are no management actions associated with this object.

The 'Summary Period' MetaSwitch Statistics objects display statistics for both controllers (A and B) in the MetaSwitch NE. If one controller has failed and is not available, the appropriate statistics values all appear as zeros.
