Thold current speed

[kieranjersey]

Hi,

I'm currently trying to set up a trigger using Thold to alarm when an interface falls below a certain threshold,
What speed does Thold measure... for example i have a graph at currenlty around 90Mbps thold has a number of 10,956,694.31.... what speed is this? bits, bytes, kilobits?

I would like this to alarm when speed falls below 5Mbps...

This is in thold tab currently


Traffic - 1/1/10 [traffic_in] 5 High/Low 5 Minutes N/A Every Hour -/5 -/5 N/A 10,582,861.4033 no Enabled

Think i've got it, Thold shows the speed in bytes, converting this into bits seems to work, so to alarm for 5Mbps i use 655360 bytes.. is that right?

No you didn't get it right. Use the function for % utilization. See attached screenshot

Hi, Thanks for the reply, can you explain how % utilization works, at peak times this interface goes up to 150Mbps, and quite times can drop down to 6-7? is this trigger a percentage of those to values?

I would just install an interface status graph and to alarm when it goes down but not sure how to do this,

Regards

Please help me as well, I've been trying to make thold work for ages now. I don't have cdef that says Precentage bw util. only have bits to bytes. The graph value are perfect for me how can I use them instead of actual poll value? Or if that's not possible how can I make the thold work.
