Hi Janice, Thanks for the reminder on the High-traffic probe group. (/me slaps himself for not thinking of that before I posted). =)
And kudos if the feature request could be implemented. It'd save us having to do the probe group trick for all our devices (>100 routers/switches/etc.. each with 3-4 interfaces of interest) We've also adjusted via "set bandwidth" the reported speeds of these interfaces to 2 x what they actually are (thereby artificially increasing the calculated bandwidth) in order not to keep flooding the EventLog with ">50% util, <50% util, >50% Util, <50% util" etc... in the meantime. Regards, - Chris.
