Hi Steve, I was looking more into this scenario:
ex. actual line is 2MB, no usage, now how can one tell if the actual 2MB link is degrading its speed? Like is there a real time detection that download speed has actually degraded from the 2MB config? hope this is clearer. thanks! regards, chris On 10/29/07, Steve Wright <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > Is there a way you can have CISCO routers,switches to proactively > > detect > > that your link is degdrading the actual bandwidth its supposed to have? > > for example, within a period of 24hours. given a 2MB leased line link. > > How > > can you analyze that the bandwdith has degraded with reference to the > > 2MB speed?
