Question about alerting

Post by abeckman »

When go into the thold tab and look at all of the thresholds I have set up there is a column called, "current". I am wondering if this is supposed to be in bps, Kbps, Mbps, KBps, MBps, etc. I am trying to set up an alert if the utilization of the link is over a certain amount. I am typically seeing five digit numbers. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
there is byte.
So, if you want to setup as Mb you should convert to Mb because the graph display as Mb.
Eg: if you want to receive email warning for a network interface at 4Mb, functions is: 4Mb/8*1024*1024=524288
--> go to the setting alert high number fill in 524288(not 999999 in this case)
some idea hope to help you.
