Tsubas,

     there are no second units in the result, since if*Octets is in
octets/sec and are divided by ifSpeed (bits/sec). This is because
snmpCollect daemon returns values in octets/sec.

Regards,
Juan.

The follow-up question:

Do you know why are we still left with the unit of second after the units
in the formula cancel out each other?

Thank you,
Tsubas

hi !

:)

since the if*Octets are counters, snmpcollect already gives you the right
delta values

List,

      The formula in mibexpr.conf is BandwidthUtilHdx =
(8*100*(IFin+IFout))/IFSpeed. Now, the formula should be a percentage but
IFin and IFout are both in bytes which get converted to bits by multiplying
by 8 but IFSpeed in bits per second. The result of the division is still in
seconds with a multiplication of 100 for it to be a percentage. So the
question is whether we still need to divide the formula with the collection
duration to get a real percentage figure.


Thank you,
Tsubasa
