Hi Jan,
 
the ones not on your network are the issue. Your networking team said, you are using way too much traffic. Did they tell you how much? It would help to know, what traffic is generated from your monitoring station onto the network. Have your networking guys help you to find out.
 
I am not familiar with ADC events. But if the 8124 is a high frequency one, bandwidth may be taxed.
 
Kind regards,

We monitor a  8124 event on our ADC servers.
We are monitoring around 50 servers all over europe, not always on the same network...

Hi Jan,
 
your issue is most likely the exchange server(s). As you mentioned, you monitor events. Exchange server produce a ton (a medium size production server > 100 MB/day) of events. You should look at your event monitoring. The poll cycle does not have any impact on events as they are (nomen est omen) event driven. Just out of interest. How many servers are you monitoring? And are they on the same network?
 
Hope this points into the right direction.
 
regards,

Hi all,

We are running WUG since a week or three now.
Last week we stopped the monitoring, because we had complaints from our network team (and their superiors) that we were using way to much bandwith.

We poll every 10 minutes and are checking just a few (Exchange) services and an event in the eventlog.

What's the best to tune down the polling, without loosing to much functionality?

Is there a difference in traffic load between ICMP and "Services only"?

Thanks,

Jan
