Alert Center LibrariesWorking with Notifications, Notification Policies, and ThresholdsThresholds LibraryWireless Clients Bandwidth Threshold
Detect when a client connected to one or more SSIDs exceeds bandwidth in one or both directions of traffic.
See indicators of a compromised wireless client or IoT end station (for example, wireless security camera, sensor, streaming device, and so on).
Managing Wireless Clients Bandwidth Thresholds:
From the Thresholds Library in the WhatsUp Gold Alert Center Libraries view, you can perform the following Wireless Clients Bandwidth Threshold operations.
Add. Create a new Wireless Clients Bandwidth Threshold.
This threshold will alert when clients that are connected to the specified SSID(s) exceed their bandwidth quota for the specified traffic direction, in the given time range.
Configure a Wireless Client Bandwidth threshold:
Automatically resolve items no longer out of threshold. Select this option if you want Alert Center to automatically resolve items when they return to the value within the threshold limit.
Note: Notification policies are optional for most thresholds. If you do not select a notification policy, no notifications are generated for the threshold, but a dashboard report listing the out of threshold items still appears on the Alert Center Home page.
Add Condition Rules:
Exclude Devices. Select to build or apply an exclusion list.
Note: Configure the threshold check interval for a longer time than the sampling interval for thresholds relating to trends, such as percent utilization. Configure it for a time the same as (or similar to) the sampling interval when configuring a threshold for a health check.
Tip: Avoid setting the threshold check interval to a very short time. Aggressive intervals can degrade system performance. In general, setting the threshold check interval to less than five minutes is not advised.
Edit. Adjust, tune, and configure an existing Wireless Clients Bandwidth Threshold.
This threshold will alert when clients that are connected to the specified SSID(s) exceed their bandwidth quota for the specified traffic direction, in the given time range.
