Description

This template is to be applied on the interfaces that connect to internet for monitoring the reserve bandwidth utilization. This template will be supported by VG v2.7.0 or above.

Prerequisites

SNMP should be enabled in end device and device should support IF-MIB.mib OIDs and SNMP credentials should be attached against the device in portal.

How to Apply: This template will ask user for 2 input parameters while assigning it to a device –

Interface Name
WAN Interface name that needs to be monitored (case sensitive).
Example: Gi0/0/0

Interface Speed
ISP provided speed on interface in bps (Bits per second)
Example: 500000000

Metric Parameters

Metric Parameters
ParameterDescription
Frequency
  • Frequency is the interval in which you want to probe and collect metric data from the target device/resource
  • Frequency is defined in minutes (min).
  • Warning ThresholdIf the metric value satisfies the condition defined along with Warning Threshold value, then a notification is sent to the user.
    Critical ThresholdIf the metric value satisfies the condition defined along with Critical Threshold value, then a notification is sent to the user.
    AlertThe alert value can be set to either Yes or No. If it is Yes, then an alert message is sent to the user.
