Circuit Utilization over 100%

We monitor router interfaces and occasionally we get alerted to high utilization of over 100%! Not sure how this can be.

Fairly simple circuits - PPP.

If there is not way to fix this, can I filter the alert to ignore anything over 100%

TIA
Chris

This is also covered in the Admin guide:

<www.solarwinds.net/.../System_Manager.htm

"Another frequent use of the Transmit and Receive Bandwidth settings is for setting thresholds when monitoring customer circuits. For example, a customer may have a 10 Mbps connection (via Ethernet), but may only be paying for 512 Kbps with overcharges when they exceed the 512k limit. You could set the Transmit and Receive Bandwidth settings to 512000 and display Percent Utilization charts for their circuit in terms of 512 Kbps."
