    Interface Discovery - VPLS Tunnel Speed

    I have an issue whereby the interface speed of VPLS tunnels is being discovered at 10Mbps - as a result I get a utilization warning on VPLS tunnels because the bandwidth is bigger than 10Mbps.
    On physical interfaces, interface speed is detected automatically which is the ideal scenario for a variety of reasons (detecting bad ports where the port speed has dropped for example).

    However, I cannot see where the 10Mb/s is coming from in the template on the VPLS tunnel. It’s not coming from the device. Has anyone seen this before?

    In an ideal scenario, I’d want to set a macro on each VPLS tunnel with a defined speed in it.

    If its an official template, could you share a link to it? Kind of hard to guess things, without looking...

      Of course, this is the template that I'm using.

        As far as I see in the template, the interface speed is obtained as a result of an SNMP request in LLD rule "Network interfaces discovery".
        If you do not want to change the trigger prototype "Interface {#IFNAME}({#IFALIAS}): High bandwidth usage", you can change the macro with context "{$IF.UTIL.MAX:"{#IFNAME}"}" by specifying, for example 200 (% of the channel speed).​

          But then that changes it for physical interfaces discovered by the same discovery item too. I just didn't expect a tunnel to return any result other than 0 - which is why I imagined there to be something in the template that dictates a default 10Mbps if no result is detected.

            Look in the "latest data" for the values of your item net.if.speed for VPLS.
            I don't see any substitutions of default values in the template.​

              Last value returns 10Mb/s
