Combine Xmit and Recv into a single graph?

Question

Running NPM 10.2.1. I have a custom view that shows individual charts for aggregate average bps in, and another chart for aggregate average bps out. Is there any way to get those to display on one chart and show the SUM of the two (i.e. total traffic) for a given time period?

Thanks for the help.

With full duplex being so ubiquituos, total traffic makes no sense for most circuits.

Hi patriot,

I think this is not quite possible yet, as currently you can only aggregate either transmit or receive traffic at a time. But what I do usually is I put end-to-end interfaces on one aggregate graph, so the incoming traffic on one interface will be the outgoing traffic of the other interface, so you can sum it up and have the throughput you want. You can only put 2 interfaces at a time though, since the sum traffic will compute all the interface traffic in the graph. :)
