I too have asked about this functionality in the CLI and Enterasys points to NetSight BUT the times that this capability is the most important is when communications from NetSight may not be possible due to yuckness on the switch/network. On non-Enterasys switches, this has been very helpful to locate a source port of "junk" (extreme traffic or errors) that was dragging a switch down. You find the port, disable it and work on finding the real source of the problem while most of the users are become happy quicker on a now working switch stack. Just a plug that it would still be a very useful feature that is implemented on many other brands. Don't get me wrong, we love our Enterasys switches and there are many things done the way we like.

Once the window and port information is shown wait at least 30 seconds (refresh interval) and you will see the same information like at Cisco's "show interface". Hope this helps.

It was nice to be able to see that. I guess Cisco was just calculating that for us as it went along. Does Enterasys do this? Is there a Mib I can hit for a 5 min port utilization average? I don't see it in the CLI so I am thinking not. I did find the flexview for port utilization but it looks like it is calculating that after you open the flexview. I would like to be able to just pull that info up on the fly like when doing the "show system utilization" command. I don't want to wait 5 min to get the 5 min average. What I am doing is creating an ultimate interface flexview, i.e., one view for all of the port info I am typically looking for.
