The "best" formula that I've (personally) seen will accommodate for the
preamble and the interpacket gap. Algebraically, it goes:
#packets * (9.6 + 6.4) + #octets * 0.8
----------------------------------------------------------
Interval * 10000
and should result in a value in the range of 0 - 100. I have also coded a
MIB expression for it, which looks like:
EtherUtil \
"Ethernet Utilization" \
.1.3.6.1.2.1.16.1.1.1.5. \
16 * \
.1.3.6.1.2.1.16.1.1.1.4. \
0.8 * + \
10000 /
This should be directly placeable in MibExpr.conf
