Hello all, I've used MRTG a lot in the past. Know I've come to a problem and I remembered to ask MRTG people's opinion. I'm not an expert in the area, not at all. So I'dd like to get expert's advices.
I need to plot Bandwidth usage for my network interfaces (Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet). What is the usual unit for displayin these values ? is it Mbit/s (1000 x 1000 bits per second) or is it Mibit/s (1024 x 1024 bits per second) I've been reading this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_prefix and I understand the diference but I have no idea what is the common practice among professionals / experts / people in the area of network traffic/sysadmins/whatever. is this just a "matter of preference" or is there a "well known established practice" ? BTW, how does MRTG represent it ? is it Mbit/s or Mibit/s ? Thanks a lot Joao _______________________________________________ mrtg mailing list [email protected] https://lists.oetiker.ch/cgi-bin/listinfo/mrtg
