Last Polled Interface Utilization Value (Specific Interface)

This home-level dashboard report provides graphical illustration of an interface utilization at the time of the last poll. Placing this dashboard report in a dashboard will allow you to view an interface status quickly, even from across the room.

There are five types of graphs to choose from:

• Pie. A 3-D pie graph that displays available interface space in green, and used space in red.
• Gauge. A semi-circle graph (much like a car speedometer) with a pointer that indicates the interface percentage used.
• Horizontal bar. A horizontal bar graph (much like a ruler) with a pointer that indicates the interface percentage used.
• Vertical bar. A vertical bar graph (much like a thermometer) with a pointer that indicates the interface percentage used.
• Text. A numerical representation of the interface percentage used. The percentage is displayed in colors that coincide with the WhatsUp threshold colors:
  • Red. Above 90%
  • Yellow. Between 80% and 90%
  • Green. 80% or less

Along with the various types of graphs to choose from, you can also pick the display size of the graph (small, medium, or large).

Under each type of graph, the interface size is listed in MBs, along with the percentages for used and free space.
