a _huge_ amount of bandwith may be consumed by the windows event log plugin. we encountered aproximately 3GB per week for just 15 servers, some of them were domain controllers. it seems like every single event is sent to your wug-box, even those billions of success audits on the DCs which are not interesting at all.
 
and: this plugin doesn't work for any NATted IP address, because the IP of your wug-box (for sending the events to) is sent in the payload of the DCOM packet and is not translated.
 
maybe helpful for you...

Subject: [WhatsUp Forum] Whatsup bandwidth consumed

Hello,

 

we need your opinion, we are new to whatsup and we are thinking about monitoring a network with 500 items (servers, network equipment, printers ...). The monitoring server would be in a different location that the monitored network and communicated to it via a point to point link.

 

Is the monitoring with whatsup very bandwitdh consumming? It depends a lot on the whatsup configuration? which range of bandwidth could we be talking about?

 

Many thanks

 

Mdeandres.
