The TCP/IP Summary workspace is a multi-pane workspace that shows the general health and activity of the TCP/IP stack. It provides performance data for the TCP layer of a z/OS(R) Communications Server TCP/IP protocol stack that is running in z/OS system images. A TCP/IP protocol stack is uniquely defined within a z/OS system image by the TCP/IP job name and the fully qualified host name or IP address. The TCP/IP Summary workspace is displayed when the TCP/IP Navigator icon for a monitored stack is selected.
An alternate workspace is the TCP/IP Summary History workspace, which displays historical performance data for the layers of the TCP/IP stack during the specified time period. This workspace displays the most recent 24 hours of historical data by default. This workspace can be displayed by right-clicking on the TCP/IP Navigator icon for a monitored stack. For more information, see TCP/IP Summary History workspace.
Note: If the address space being monitored is running on z/OS v1.11 or earlier, the values for this attribute group are retrieved using SNMP. If the address space being monitored is running on z/OS v1.12 or later, the values for this attribute group are retrieved using the z/OS Communications Server callable network management interface (NMI).
The TCP/IP Summary workspace contains the following views:
The TCP/IP Summary table displays the TCP/IP Summary attributes that can be used to view information about TCP/IP stack conditions, find and fix problems in your network, or create situations that monitor information for a selected TCP/IP stack.
The Address Space workspace and the TCP/IP Summary workspace share a common attribute table, TCPIP_Address_Space. Only a subset of the attributes are displayed in each workspace. For a complete list of the attributes available in the Address Space Summary table, and a brief description of each, see the TCPIP Summary Attributes help panel.
