Network utilization Calculation

[Yazan Yacoub]

Hello,

I appreciate if someone can explain how can I do calculation for network utilization, I can monitor packets per second on my systems, but how can I calculate MByte per second, and what is the acceptable utilization for 100 Mbit and 1 Gbit NICs.

for example:
one of my NIC reported 52,269.12 Packet Rate as an output, its 1Gbit interface, at the same time its reach 27,828.51 input packet rate. is this acceptable rate?



in simple words when I reach bottleneck on NIC's.

Thanks,

Hi ,

From "Perf view" you will get network utilization graphs.
