This monitor report displays the traffic in automatically selected units for device interfaces.
When a device is selected, the traffic for the currently selected interface displays. Each point on the graph corresponds with an entry in the graph data table below. In Octets are graphed with a red line, while Out Octets are graphed using blue.
When multiple interfaces are present in the selected device, change the selected interface using the Interface menu.
Note: The units displayed in this report vary depending on the amount of traffic moving through the selected interface. Both transmitted and received traffic are considered when selecting the units to display. If there is a large difference between the transmitted and received traffic, the most relevant unit for the smaller amount of traffic is selected and applied to both.
Click the Chart Properties button to change how the report chart is displayed.
Under the main report graph is a Split Second Graph that displays real-time interface traffic data.
Note: Split Second Graphs are not available in WhatsUp Gold Standard Edition.
Note: Split Second Graphs are not available in VMware host reports.
Note: When viewing information for devices running Microsoft Windows, information gathered via WMI is displayed in real time. Information gathered by SNMP, however, may reflect a delay of one minute or more. This delay is caused by a limitation in how often Microsoft Windows updates SNMP values.
Below the Split Second Graph, the Summary report displays the average interface utilization collected during the time period:
Note: Values displayed in the graph are the average values for the selected time period. Values displayed in the summary are the minimum, maximum, and average values for the selected time period. If raw polling data has been averaged into hourly or daily summarized data, the values for min and average, or maximum and average can be different. In some cases, they may be very different if there was a period of time when polled values were much higher or lower than normal.
You can verify your report rollup settings on the WhatsUp Gold console via Program Options > Report Data.
Below the date/time picker is a table showing interface utilization across the current group for the selected time period.
To see a real-time graph for the utilization of a device, hover over the interface description in the Description column.
Change to another device monitor report by selecting a different report button.
