Looking for a Template for Interface In/Out Utilization in %

Post by arvindkv »

Hello Support,

I am looking for a graph and data template which i can use for polling Interface Input Utilization and Output Utilization in percentage.
There is a urgent requirement for me. Please help me with this.
Let me know if any other information is required.

Thanks

You would probably have to write it yourself, I don't know of one that exists currently. The easiest option would be probably to create a CDEF that calculates the percentage for you. Duplicate the Graph template, and use that to make the modifications. The hard part is actually knowing a links max speed vs real speed. My home internet connection is 12 Mbps but the interface port is gigabit. So if you went off of the port speed, even maxing out my line would show ~1% utilization. Generally means that your max would have to be set manually for each graph.

I use the Weathermap + syslog plugin to alert on interface usage based on percentage. This isn't exactly what you requested but a known way to monitor and alert on percentage.
