Summary Bar Information
Many of the stats on the summary bar may be
configured to be
graphed for further analysis.
General
- Ident: The first four characters (24 bits) of your 44-character (256-bit) Base64 router hash. The full hash is shown on your router info page. Never reveal this to anyone, as your router info contains your IP.
- Version: The version of the I2P software you are running.
- Now: The current time (UTC) and the skew, if any. I2P requires your computer's time be accurate. If the skew is more than a few seconds, please correct the problem by adjusting your computer's time.
- Reachability: The router's view of whether it can be contacted by other routers. Further information is on the configuration page.
Peers
- Active: The first number is the number of peers you've sent or received a message from in the last few minutes. This may range from 8-10 to several hundred, depending on your total bandwidth, shared bandwidth, and locally-generated traffic. The second number is the number of peers seen in the last hour or so. Do not be concerned if these numbers vary widely. [Enable graphing].
- Fast: This is the number of peers you use for building client tunnels. It is generally in the range 8-15. Your fast peers are shown on the profiles page. [Enable graphing].
- High Capacity: This is the number of peers you use for building some of your exploratory tunnels. It is generally in the range 8-25. The fast peers are included in the high capacity tier. Your high capacity peers are shown on the profiles page. [Enable graphing].
- Well Integrated: This is the number of peers you use for network database inquiries. These are usually the "floodfill" peers. Your well integrated peers are shown on the bottom of the profiles page.
- Known:
This is the total number of routers you know about.
They are listed on the network database page.
This may range from under 100 to 1000 or more.
This number is not the total size of the network;
it may vary widely depending on your total bandwidth,
