TX traffic load close to port capacity-gigamon-GigaVUE-OS
Vendor: gigamon
OS: GigaVUE-OS
Description:
Indeni will alert if the transmit load is close to the port capacity.
Remediation Steps:
High interface utilization usually occurs when the network is experiencing heavy traffic load. Check if the heavy traffic load is expected.
How does this work?
Using the “show port utilization” to grab port utilization data.
Why is this important?
Generally, tracking the amount of transmit data through the interfaces is important to identify any capacity related issues, and apply QoS mechanisms.
Without Indeni how would you find this?
Login to the device’s CLI, change to enable mode and issue “show port utilization”. This would present a table with the ports in question and their utilization as well as other parameters.
