   • Stack Spline Area is an area chart that stacks multiple series of data vertically and plots a fitted curve through all data points in the series.
   • Stack Line is a Stack Area chart that does not fill the areas defined by each stacked series. Data series are stacked at each point of measurement marked on the x-axis.
   • Line Chart is a chart created using lines to connect series data points. All series use the x-axis as a common baseline .
   • Spline plots a fitted curve through all series data points in a line chart.
   • Bar Chart assigns each data point its own column and plots maximums against the vertical scale.

    • Rate (Kbps) creates a chart displaying historical traffic rate data for selected flow-enabled nodes and interfaces.
    • % of Interface Speed is only available for widgets presenting interface traffic data. This option creates a chart showing how bandwidth is allocated across the elements listed in the widget.
    • % of Total Traffic creates a chart showing how the total traffic over the selected node or interface is distributed across the elements listed in the widget. This is the default data unit type.
    • Data Transferred Per Time Interval creates a chart displaying the actual amount of data transferred over the selected node or interface. Data volume is measured over successive time intervals.
    • % of Class Utilization creates a chart displaying what percentage of the limit set for the appropriate class is used up by the interface or node. This option requires that you have set limits for individual classes on appropriate devices and is available only for the following CBQoS widgets on Interface Details Views:
