Recently got orion up and running now seeing high response tiems now and then on my main switches.

mks2005

For some reason every now and then the response times on my main switches got well above 200ms according to orion.

When this happens I check all the ports that orion is monitoring on that switch but they are all at 0% utilization and if i drill down they have very little traffic.

Im more of a server guy really thats had the network admin role chucked on top of my job as well LOL.. I know enough to get along but am not sure where to start to diagnose thise issue.

How can Orion help me track down the course?

Thanks

I have a feeling they have problems with accepting pings.

If I ping a device that is connected through the switch with high ping in orion I will get a 1ms response time but if I ping the switch I never get below 2ms but somes times a lot more.

Do certain switchs give less priority to ping packets then? Thats what im guessing as I can ping everything else fine on the network just the switches themselves high a high ms reponse.
