ICMP Statistics workspace
The ICMP Statistics workspace statistics for the Internet Control
Message Protocol (ICMP) and ICMPv6 on z/OS v1.12 or later systems.
Note: This workspace displays data only when
the monitoring agent is running on a z/OS V1.12 or later system.
To display the ICMP Statistics workspace, do the following steps:
- Click the TCP/IP Stack Layers Navigator
item.
- Right-click the TCP/IP Stack Layers Navigator
item.
- Click ICMP Statistics.
The ICMP Statistics workspace provides the following views:
- ICMP Global Statistics Summary table: Displays
statistics for the Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) and ICMPv6
on z/OS v1.12 or later systems.
- Messages in Error: Displays the number of
inbound messages received in error or number of outbound messages
transmitted in error per each ICMP version since TCP/IP initialization.
The x-axis is ICMP version and the y-axis is the count of messages.
Each ICMP version includes two bars: one denoting the inbound messages
in error and one denoting the outbound messages in error since the
stack has been up and running. The information is presented in a bar
graph where:
- Yellow represents Total Inbound Messages
in Error.
- Blue represents Total Outbound Messages
in Error.
- Total Messages per ICMP Type: Displays the
number of messages received and sent per each ICMP type since TCP/IP
initialization. The x-axis is ICMP types and the y-axis is the count
of messages received and sent. Each ICMP type includes one bar denoting
the total messages received and sent since TCP/IP initialization.
The information is presented in a bar graph where:
- Yellow represents Total Messages Sent Received
- Total Messages per ICMPv6 Type: Displays
the number of messages received and sent per each ICMPv6 type since
TCP/IP initialization. The x-axis is ICMPv6 types and the y-axis
is the count of messages received and sent. For each ICMPv6 type
there is one bar denoting the total messages received and sent since
TCP/IP initialization. The information is presented in a bar graph
where:
- Yellow represents Total Messages Sent Received
- Total Messages: Displays the number of messages
received or messages transmitted per each ICMP version since TCP/IP
initialization in a bar chart. The x-axis is ICMP version and the
y-axis is the count of messages. Each ICMP version includes two bars:
one denoting the total messages received and one denoting the total
messages sent since the stack has been up and running. The information
is presented in a bar graph where:
- Yellow represents Total Messages Received.
- Blue represents Total Messages Sent.
- ICMP Type Statistics Summary table: Displays
statistics for the Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) on z/OS
v1.12 or later systems.
- ICMPv6 Type Statistics Summary table: Displays
statistics for ICMPv6 on z/OS v1.12 or later systems.
For more information about ICMP message types, see the ICMP types
and codes appendix of the IBM z/OS Communications
Server: IP System Administrator's Commands book.
