3.2.1 Bar colors changing at configured counter values (Single)

You can configure threshold values at which there is a change in the color of the bars. As the counter
value exceeds the configured threshold values, the color of the entire bar changes to reflect the
configured colors.

The following table illustrates how you can configure threshold values and colors.

Traffic Views Help Support for Bar Graphs

Figure 1: Configured threshold values and colors

In this example, a bar is green from counter values 0 to 20000. When the counter value exceeds
20000, the color of that bar changes to red. When the counter value exceeds 45000, the color of that
bar changes to yellow.

Figure 2: Bar colors changing at configured counter values

To apply the Single coloring style to a graph, see Configuring Color Ranges in a Bar Graph (Single)

3.2.2 Different colors for different sections of the bar (Multi)

You can configure threshold values at which there is a change in the color of the bars. As the counter
value exceeds configured threshold values, the color of the corresponding section of the bar changes
to reflect the configured color.

The following table illustrates how you can configure threshold values and colors.

– Single set counter.

– Single set relative counter/counter.

4.2 Colors for Data sets or TNESs in a Line Graph

Line graphs support the following coloring options

• In Traffic Views or Traffica Admin Tool, you can configure different colors for different sets of a
multi set graph. You can see these colors in Traffic Views.
• In Traffic Views, you can configure different colors for different TNESs of a graph with multiple
TNESs. For more information, see Configuring different colors for different TNESs of a single set
graph

If you convert a graph of one type to another, colors configured for this graph in Traffic Views will be
lost after the conversion. Only the colors configured in Traffica Admin Tool will be preserved. You can
preserve the colors configured for a graph in Traffic Views by saving it to the Traffic Views Work Set.

Colors for different TNESs

In the following example, a line graph has been used to represent a single set counter with history,
where data is collected from multiple TNESs. Each TNES has been represented by a separate line.
The following graph illustrates how you can compare the number of calls that are getting dropped in
different TNESs using a line graph.

In Traffica Admin Tool or Traffic Views, a graph can be set to table format. The graph is displayed as a
table in Traffic Views.

In Traffic Views, you can convert graphs of other graph types (for example, bar graphs) to table
format.

DN0432421 6-1 © 2018 Nokia 18

Traffic Views Help Support for Table Format

5.1 Single Color in a Table

In Traffic Views or Traffica Admin Tool, you can configure a single color for the table using the Single
color option (Graph Properties->Data Colors). If you configure the color of the table with this option,
the color does not vary according to the changes in the counter values.

The default color of the Single color option of the table format is white.

Note:

If you configure a color for a table using the Single color option and change the table to
another graph type (For example, bar graph), this color is not applied to the table and vice
versa. An example of this behavior is given below.

Create a table. The default color of the table is white. Change the color of the table from
white to grey using the Single color option. Change the table to a bar graph.

Table (Grey) --> Bar Graph (Default Blue)

The grey color of the table is not applied to the bar graph. So the bar graph has the default
color blue.

Now change the color of the bar graph from blue to red using the Single color option.
Convert the bar graph to table format.

Bar Graph (Red)-->Table (Grey)

The red color of the bar graph is not applied to the table. The table has a grey color, which
you previously configured.

Now convert the table to bar graph.

Table (Grey) --> Bar Graph (Red)

The bar graph has a red color, which you previously configured.

Thus for Single color option, changing the color of the bar graph to red did not affect the
color of table. Similarly, changing the color of the table to grey, did not affect the color of the
bar graph.

5.1.1 Clear Code Matrix types supporting single color in table

This feature is available only for graphs of CCMA types with the following properties

• Counters without history (data collected from combined TNESs or separately from multiple
TNESs).

– Multi set counter.

– Multi set relative counter/counter.

• Counters with history (data collected from combined TNESs or separately from multiple TNESs).

5.2 Table cell colors changing at configured counter values (Single)

In Traffic Views or Traffica Admin Tool, you can configure threshold values at which there is a change
in the color of a cell of the table (color ranges).

The Multiple Colors option in the Data Colors tab will be disabled for the table format.

You can preserve the colors configured for a table in Traffic Views by saving it to the Traffic Views
Work Set.

Consider a color ranges table configured with threshold values and colors as shown in the figure
below.

Figure 7: Configured threshold values and colors

When threshold values are configured as shown in the table above, the table is displayed in Traffic
Views as shown below. In the table, a cell of the table is green until counter value 1000. When the
counter values exceeds 1000, the color of the cell changes to yellow. When the counter values

DN0432421 6-1 © 2018 Nokia 20

Traffic Views Help Support for Table Format

exceeds 5000, the color of the cell changes to red. For more information on how to configure color
ranges in a table, see Configuring Color Ranges in a Table.

This example illustrates how you can use the table format to compare the values of R.A Updates, PDP
Context deactivations, PDP Context activations, Attaches and Detaches in three different TNESs,
CUS TS, West Wing TNES and East Wing TNES. The table has been created using a graph of CCMA
type multi set counter with history for data collected from multiple TNESs.

Traffic Views Help Support for viewing float values in the data labels

7 Support for viewing float values in the data labels

You can define data labels in Traffica Admin Tool to display values with a precision of one or two
decimal places in Traffic Views graphs. You cannot define data labels to display these values in Traffic
Views. For more information, see in Traffica Admin Tool Help.

You cannot filter for these values. These values are displayed in the data labels because the original
values have been divided by 10 or 100. The data labels are defined in Traffica Admin Tool. Filtering
should be done for the original values and not for the values displayed in the data labels.

Traffic Views Help Support for Vector Graphs

9 Support for Vector Graphs

Vector graphs are supported in Bar and Table formats. In some cases vectors can contain so many
vector items that due to the memory constraints of the Traffic Views client, some vector items must be
excluded from the graph.

Vector items are first sorted based on selected sorting criteria (for example based on "Value" and
"Descending" or based on "Label" and " Ascending"), and only then filtered.

If "Guard Value" is used in the graph, it is taken into account before the exclusion in relative vector
graphs.

Exclusion limits for different graph types are described in the following table:

Graph type Vector item limit

Single TNES graphs without history 5000

This means that if a single TNES graph has more

than 5000 vector items, only 5000 will be shown
based on selected sorting criteria.

Single TNES graphs with history 1000

TNES Group graphs without history and with 500

“TNES group as combined” option.

TNES Group graphs without history without 500 divided by the ”amount of TNESs in the
“TNES group as combined” option. group” per TNES.

For example if a TNES group has 10 TNESs ,

then the limit is 500 / 10 = 50 per TNES.

TNES Group graphs with history with “TNES 200

group as combined” option
In this kind of graphs, all vector items from all
TNESs are collected and then sorted based on
the selected sorting criteria and the overall result
is limited to 200.

TNES Group graphs with history and without 200 divided by the ”amount of TNESs in the
“TNES group as combined” option. group” per TNES. For example if a TNES group
has 10 TNES s, then the limit is 200 / 10 = 20 per
TNES.

Table 1: Exclusion limits for different graph types

You can use the vector item tooltip to view the rank of the selected item and the total amount of items
in the graph.

DN0432421 6-1 © 2018 Nokia 26

Traffic Views Help Support for Vector Graphs

For example in the following graph, the selected eNodeB 79588 is 7th in rank out of 200 vector
items(which is exclude limit for this type of group graph):

Figure 12: Vector item tooltip

If the vector item you want to see is not displayed, try the following steps:

• Use the filter function if the graph has one.

• Change the sorting criteria to find the element.
• Use graph set without history, as those have a higher vector item list than history graphs.
• In case of a group graph, try using the corresponding Single TNES graph, as those have higher
vector item limits than group graphs.

14 Opening graphs, linked graphs and graph sets

Graph Repository

The Graph Repository shows all graphs and graph sets of a user group in a folder hierarchy.

The Work Set is the user’s folder hierarchy. You can create folders in which to copy graphs and graph
sets.

To modify graphs and graph sets they have to be copied to the Work Set and/or the Content Frame.

There are also linked graphs, which include root graphs and child graphs. Both root graphs and child
graphs are visible in the Graph Repository, but only root graphs can be copied from the Graph
Repository to the Work Set and/or the Content Frame.

Once a root graph is copied, child graphs follow. Child graphs are operated through root graphs. If a
bar is clicked in the root graph, the child graph shows further data on the basis of the value that the
particular bar represents.

16 Viewing graph errors

Graph errors window

By default, if there are errors in the graph, there is a red indicator visible next to the graph title, as
shown in the following figure.

Figure 14: Graph error indicator

Detailed error messages can be viewed in the tooltip, or by clicking the indicator. If the graph has the
Show Graph Header option enabled, the Errors button is also shown.

Possible error messages:

Errors from server:

1. CCMA path not found from TNES

CCMA path specified in graph definitions does not match with TNES CCMA definitions. Contact
Traffica Administrator to check the graph and CCMA definitions.
2. Incompatible time classes in subscription reply

If graph definition has multiple time classes then time class interval, time zone of the time class
and number of time slices must be the same. If data source is TNES group then all group elements
should use the same time class. All relative, summed and average graphs that use multiple
TNESs, should use exactly the same time class. Contact Traffica Administrator to check graph and
time class definitions.
3. All subscription replies not received. Data in the graph is outdated.

One or more subscription replies, which are needed to update graph data, have not been received
in time. Contact Traffica Administrator to check that all TNESs involved in the graph have correct
system time and time zone settings. Note that if two TNESs are located in the same time zone, it
is not enough that the system time is the same, also the time zone setting needs to be the same.
If time settings are correct, this problem may occur because of a delay in network connections
between TNESs and TS (that contains Views Server).
4. Connection lost to TNES

Connection between Traffic Views Server and TNES or Traffic Views Main Server and Traffic
Views Extension Server is lost. TNES or Traffic Views Extension Server may be down or the
physical network connection is not OK. Please, try accessing the same graph later. If the problem
persists, contact Traffica Administrator.

5. Subscription reply not received

Graph initialization has failed. Close the graph and open it again.
6. Cannot connect to Counter Server

Connection between Traffic Views Main Server and Traffic Views Extension Server is lost. Traffic
Views Extension Server may be down or the physical network connection is not OK. Please, try
accessing the same graph later. If the problem persists, contact Traffica Administrator.
7. Error while sending subscription to Counter Server

Protocol level communication error occurred. Please, try accessing the same graph later. Traffica
Administrator can check if there are any errors printed in logs. If the problem persists, contact
Technical Support.
8. Filter range defined too wide

CCMA path in graph definition contains filter definition with too wide a range. The maximum range
is 10 000 items. Change filter values to smaller from graph properties.
9. Dividend or divider information is missing

• Dividend is missing
• Divider is missing
• Dividend vector is missing
• Divider vector is missing

Dividends or dividers subscription reply fails in relative graph. Check if there is a subscription error
or if connection has failed.
10. No visible data source in graph

Views server that you have an open connection to does not see the selected data source. Select
some other data source or login to some other Views server that might be able to see the data
source. If unsuccessful, contact Traffica Administrator. The Administrator can tell you the right
Views server.
11. Requested entity type did not match with ccma path

CCMA path specified in graph definitions does not match with the CCMA type. Contact Traffica
Administrator to check the CCMA definitions and CCMA type.

Errors from client:

1. Data is partly missing. Counter values are not reliable.

Counter values in the graph are not reliable because the counters have not been continuously
updated.

Possible reasons:

• Connection lost between TNES and network element

• TNES workspace has been started more recently than the longest time class history
• Time class is reset manually

DN0432421 6-1 © 2018 Nokia 42

Traffic Views Help Viewing graph errors

Reliability factor for historical time classes is calculated as follows:

Views Servers have collected time from all time slices that shows how much data has not been
received in time (not collected time from all slices) and Views Client calculates percentage of how
much of all collected data (all slices) is reliable.

Reliability factor for non-historical time classes is calculated as follows:

Views Servers have collected time that shows how much data is not received in time (not collected
time) and Views Client calculates percentage of data that has not been received after the last time
class reset.

If reliability factor is more than 99%, this error is not shown. Yellow symbol is shown if reliability
factor is more than 90% but less than 99%. Red symbol is shown if reliability factor is less than
90%.

If graph shows data from multiple TNESs, reliability factor is shown according to the worst TNES.
Note that reliability factor does not indicate time when connection between TNES and TS is lost
since it does effect counter values.
2. TNES group does not contain any TNESs

Data source for the graph is the TNES group that does not contain any TNESs. Contact Traffica
Administrator to check the data source definition for this graph.
3. Traffic Views Client lost connection to Traffic Views Server

Connection to Traffic Views Server is lost. Traffic Views Server is not running, physical connection
to Traffic Views Server is not OK, or Traffica Administrator has changed topology configuration.
Please, relogin after a while. If the relogin fails, contact Traffica Administrator.
4. Subscription error

Subscribing graph fails. Close the graph and open it again. If it still does not work, contact
administrator. The administrator can check server logs if there is some information for solving the
problem.
5. Unknown subscription

Subscribing graph fails. Close the graph and open it again. If it still does not work, contact
administrator. The administrator can check server logs if there is some information for solving the
problem.
6. Visible datapoint value set to maximum <value> value because vector item count exceeded the
limit

There is a maximum limit for how many vector items it is sensible to show at the same time. That is
the reason why there is an automatically defined visible datapoint value for graph properties.
7. Cannot select a TNES

There is no element in TNES group that could be selected for graph. Contact Traffica Administrator
to check data source definition for this graph.
8. Internal client error

If some other client errors occur, contact Technical Support, and be prepared to provide client
(C:\Users\<<username>>\.<<username>>.\TVClient.log) and server logs (C:\Traffica\ErrorLog
\TrafViews*.log) to enable troubleshooting.
9. Graph data source no longer exists

The graph does not have a data source defined. A Traffica Administrator needs to define a data
source for the graph.
10. Generating combined graph failed because of data overflow error

The calculation of combined graph failed because a sum of values got so large that it could not be
represented internally. The shown graph data is unreliable.
11. Visible data points and others bar calculation failed because of data overflow error

The calculation of visible data points and/or others bar failed because a sum of values got so large
that it couldn't be represented internally. The graph is shown without visible data points feature.
12. Timestamps in the tooltips are shown in GMT+0 format because TNESs in the graph are located in
several time zones

This warning occurs when combining a TNES group graph where TNESs are located in different
time zones. In this case timestamps are shown in GMT+0 format no matter what the original
timestamps were.
13. When a graph is deleted by administrator and user has created a graph based on that to Work Set,
following error message shows:

General: Graph is invalid. Metagraph not found. Current graph may have been removed from
the graph repository and this could be the reason why the metagraph is not found. Contact the
administrator for solving the problem.
14. Too large value range or value is not in value range

This error is displayed in the following cases

• When filtering is done for a large range of values, as there are too many values within this
range.
• When filtering is done for negative values in a graph that does not support negative values.
• When filtering is done for values that are too small or too big.

22 Modifying graph properties

You can modify properties of graphs on the Content Frame or graphs located in Work Set. Graphs
that are currently open on the Content Frame cannot be modified in Work Set. In addition to modifying
graph properties, you can create and delete graphs in Work Set. Only the administrator(s) can modify
graphs in Graph Repository.

NOTE: If properties are changed in the Content Frame, the changes will be saved (in logout) only after
the graph set is added or updated to Work set. The name of the graph set is shown in red while there
are unsaved changes in the set.

NOTE: If you are running Graph Set Show, you must pause the Show to make any changes. Changes
made during Graph Set Show cannot be saved. For more information, see Viewing Graph Sets with
Graph Set Show.

Select to convert the y-axis of a graph into a logarithmic scale. The values on the y-axis will read as 1,
10, 100, 1000, etc. Each interval in the logarithmic y-axis scale will be larger than the previous interval
by a factor of 10. This option is useful when viewing graphs with values spanning large ranges.

DN0432421 6-1 © 2018 Nokia 53

Traffic Views Help Modifying graph properties

In a logarithmic Y-axis scale, there is no data visible in the graph between values 0 and 1. This is
because this range of values is undefined on the logarithmic scale.

Fixed Y-axis scale

Select to enable a fixed y-axis scale. The behavior of this option is listed for each graph type. You can
enter both positive and negative values in the maximum and minimum fields.

Type in the minimum and maximum value that show on the y-axis of the graph. The minimum and
maximum values can be entered only if the Fixed y-axis scale check box is checked.

Stacked Bar

If there is a single label on the graph the values can be shown in a stacked bar. Choose the scale on
which the values are shown on the y-axis: The scale can be set automatic by checking the Automatic
button. This means that the scale shows all the values of the label. The scale can be set 100%
Stacked. This means that the scale is in per cents. The scale can be set Fixed y-axis scale. This
means that you can set the minimum and maximum values of the scale.

Line

Type in the minimum and maximum value that show on the y-axis of the graph. The minimum and
maximum values can be entered only if the Fixed Y-axis scale check box is checked.
