I don't think that the standard MIBs provide a bandwidth utilization measurement variable. See http://www.cisco.com/en/US/tech/tk648/tk362/technologies_tech_note09186a008009496e.shtml Which basically says you need to measure the deltas between samples of ifInOctets or ifOutOctets and divide by ifSpeed to figure out your utilization. This means you need to keep state, and the WhatsUp monitoring agents are by design stateless. You can do something like this with MRTG. SolarWinds also has a nice network management suite that runs under Windows, but then if you're already running WhatsUp you don't want to buy another tool. -bws Please visit http://www.ipswitch.com/support/mailing-lists.html to be removed from this list.
