What do you read in the graphs?

Post by brononi »

As a network engineer, I love graphs. You can read things in graphs that you won't image that it was possible.
Below, you can see the traffic load of my switch for a IP Camera that is located outside.

I'm glad I do not live in Belgium. Seems like in January it's really dark for quite some time :-)
But other then that, really nice linkage between network traffic and sun-shine.

I guess this is due to the extremely large compression when it's dark outside ?

The reason is that during the day, the IP-camera is sending more traffic (=colors). And during the night, only black/white images are transferred.
