Good day.
I wanted to know why the graph data for inbound/outbound higher than it should be. Can any only help me, because i am monitoring the traffic on a device but it is only allowed 3Mb but cacti graph shows 5.5Mb in traffic.
Also which interface is best to choose when trying to monitor the bandwidth of a device. eg. eth0 or ath0?
Please help.
Thanks in advance.

That depends on the device and vendor. Typically eth0. Try both and see which is correct...kimron wrote:Also which interface is best to choose when trying to monitor the bandwidth of a device. eg. eth0 or ath0?

How do you KNOW PRTG is correct?
