Netflow Reading

We have an MPLS Network, and essentially 3 tunnels to 3 locations from the main point. It's capturing data fine, but it's reading 2300% utilization [9000 bps in/out]. Obviously that's wrong, and I need to change the setting, but not sure where to look?

Well that setting should be coming from Orion. You'd have to check the Orion server or poller those devices are on and make sure the interface settings are correct. They should automatically pick up the correct interface speed but if not you'll have to manually put int he right vlaues in the interface details.

Thanks for the quick response Bryan. I did need to change the setting. It's a T-1 [MPLS Tunnel], and it kept seeing 9000 bps and not 1544000 bps. I did that, and now the readings look normal' 10% - 20%...

If you open the System Manager, and then open up the Interface's properties, then you can adjust the values by checking the "Custom Bandwidth".

Hope this helps,

David,

Thanks it did! I changed it from 9000 to 1544000, and now the data looks more factual.
