Bandwidth utilization Reports

[rafaelvdberg]

Does Nagios XI have a way of displaying switch port bandwidth utilization reports (as a percentile).

If so, how is this configured?

As a percentage of what?

[rafaelvdberg]

For example, for a 10/100 port on a switch, the % utilization of that port.

i.e. if it was running at 5mbps it would be 5%.

The Bandwidth Utilization Report, under the Reports section allows you to view information such as this on a per port basis.

Thanks, how do I add switch ports to this? It currently shows empty and I can't use the switch - router wizard as my device is behind a firewall so I am port forwarding the SNMP traffic.

Currently this is not possible. You would have to create a custom script that parses the output of the rrds, does the math against a user defined "max", and outputs new percentage based perf data to be saved in a different rrd. This would have to be running concurrently with the standard mrtg checks as there is no easy way to roll data into rdds for past times as those values are averaged and recorded as time proceeds and new checks are recorded. In short, not really.

You may be able to create a custom snmp check that records the usage as a percentage as well.
