It looks like you have got a wrong expression.
It has to be like this. 

OctetsIn (counter)* 8
-------------------------- * 100 = InUtilization
Speed of the interface 
for 100Megs is (100 000 000)


This can't be more than 100 %

List,

I am using the Bandwidth Utilization In and Out expressions in the SNMP
Data Collect section of Netview 7.1.2. I have set this up to collect data
on my routers and switches. However, the results I am seeing are totally
confusing me. I show a total utilization on some switches of over 100%. If
I am correct in my assumption, the value returned during the BW Utilization
SNMP collect should show the % of total utilization. I am trying to figure
out how the utilization on some switches is beyond their physical
capabilities. Either my network regularly eats it's wheaties or I have done
something wrong! Does anybody have any input on this. I have had a running
discussion about this with Netview support but they seem to think that this
problem has to do with the way our Cisco devices are reporting their IF
In/Out Octets. Our Network administrator swears that everything is correct
on the Cisco side.

Here is one of my events from the data collection.

Thu Sep 26 14:51:42 2002 LINCOLN_B.lecis D BandwidthUtilOut 41 threshold
exceeded (>300.00): 412.67 BandwidthUtilOut

All ideas are welcome!

Thanks,
