The Analysis Period
Your first step in analyzing data is to pick an
analysis period
. The analysis period is the time span
for which you want to analyze the data. Graphic display of the analysis results is selected by default.
The initial analysis can be refined by using call direction (inbound, outbound, or both) and modem
filtering to select which modems should be used in the analysis.
The Analysis Data
The Statistical Analyzer looks for data in the C:\MRACK\MR.LOG\ directory of the management
workstation. Data for the local site is stored as .EVT log files. Data for each remote site is stored in
the remote controller as .HR log files. To analyze remote data, you must FTP the .HR files to a
subdirectory of MR.LOG that has the same name as the short name of the remote site. E.g., for a
remote site with the long name “CommPlete” and the short name “CMP,” the .HR files must be
placed in C:\MRACK\MR.LOG\CMP\. The subdirectory for each site is created automatically when
you define the site.

Analysis Procedures
Analyzing data is a four-step process:
1. Decide on the IP site and period you want to analyze.
2. FTP log files for the period from the IP site to the management PC (not required for a local
site).
3. Select analysis parameters in the Analysis Period dialog box and process the data.
4. Display the results.
The following procedures describe these steps in greater detail.
