    Capture the Outgoing Traffic

    Dear friends
    How do I identify the speed used in the item below by command
    On the zabbix server?

    I tried to use this one below but it's totally different:

    Snmpwalk -v2c -c Public IP IF-MIB :: ifOutOctets

    Please tell me if the item is correct

    Look at the screens:

    Item :
    Recent Data :

    Thanks
    Almir

    Hello almirf!

    1 KB = 1024 octets, 1 KB = 1024 bytes, 1 octet = byte.
    Taking this into consideration, you don't need multiplier of 8.

      Hi almirf,

      For network I/O check, I think that I use the following.

      IF-MIB::ifInOctets
      IF-MIB::ifOutOctets
      IF-MIB::ifHCInOctets
      IF-MIB::ifHCOutOctets

      The one that includes "In" is the incoming side, and the one that includes "Out" is the outgoing side.

      If you want to measure the track on the outgoing side, use one of the following two.

      IF-MIB::ifOutOctets
      IF-MIB::ifHCOutOctets

      Which is used should be judged according to the size of the numerical value that can be handled by each counter.
      "IF-MIB::ifOutOctets" is a 32-bit counter.
      "IF-MIB::ifHCOutOctets" is a 64-bit counter.
      If it is a high-speed network, please be aware that the 32 bit counter overflows in a short time.
      If it is a high-speed network, you should select "IF-MIB::ifHCOutOctets".

      You use "IF-MIB::ifOutOctets" on the command line and use "IF-MIB::ifHCInOctets.9" in the item setting.
      Comparing the packet counter on the outgoing side with the packet counter on the incoming side will not match.
      Since the 32-bit counter and the 64-bit counter are also different things, please compare the same things properly.


      Hi ovas,

      bps = bits per second
      it is not bytes per second.

      To measure bps, a multiplier of 8 is required.

        Thank you Atsushi, should have paid more attention.
