Hi people.

Found this forum and wanted to ask a short question ...

I have been working a few months now with Extreme networks switches like Black diamond and Summit switches.

Now I would like to in my network see the utilization on every port , like how much bandwidth the user on that port uses.

I know how to show the utilization on the ports , but my problem is that of the four counters I don´t know which is best to use ? . I mean the four alternatives is : RX % bandwitdth , peak RX % bandwitdth , Tx % bandwitdth and Peak Tx bandwidth . Which of these shows the bandwitdht the user uses ?

Thanks in advance.

byte/sec Rx (%)
Bandwidth Peak Rx(%)0.48 <---
Bandwidth Tx (%) 0.00 <--- I would say that this is
Bandwidth Peak Tx(%)0.01 <--- what you need.
