Network Router Bandwidth

Hi all,
I'm trying to set up some triggers for Bandwidth utilization on a Cisco Router. I'd like for it to give a warning at 80% and critical at 90%. I don't know what these values are, what do the 5s and 6s represent? The M?
Are the Bandwidth Monitoring Defaults 20% Warning when the circuit is 20% utilized? I may be over analyzing this.

That is the In/Out bandwidth limit for warning, and critical thresholds:
Code: Select all
-w, --warning
Warning threshold pair <incoming>,<outgoing>
-c, --critical
Critical threshold pair <incoming>,<outgoing>
The M stands for your data level, either B,K,M or G. Which in turn are B=bps; K=Kbps; M=Mbps; G=Gbps. As denoted by the dropdowns after the wizard runs it's scan.

Ok cool, so the '5' is 5 mb and 6 is 6mb? Correct?

Yep! I believe those would be the correct numbers, an easy way to test would be to look at that service's reported bandwidth from the check, if it is above 5 it should be in a warning state.
