Hello colleagues

In NCE PMS have 4 different kind of PORT_BW_UTILIZATION

PORT_BW_UTILIZATION
PORT_BW_UTILIZATION_AVG
PORT_BW_UTILIZATION_MAX
PORT_BW_UTILIZATION_MIN

Please explain what their difference is.

What is the method of their calculation.

And most importantly, what metric should pay attention to to determine port congestion.

Dear friend!
PORT_BW_UTILIZATION indicates the port bandwidth usage.
Calculation formula: Number of sent bytes x 8/Unit time/Configured or actual bandwidth
For Ethernet services, the default lower threshold is 80%. Upper threshold: 90%

If the device continuously reports PORT_BW_UTILIZATION_MAX performance threshold-crossing events, port congestion may occur.

Thank you!

what metric is better i should choose to determine port congestion
PORT_BW_UTILIZATION_AVG or maybe PORT_BW_UTILIZATION_MAX

Dear friend!
UTILIZATION_ AVG has more reference value because it represents the average value of port bandwidth utilization in a monitoring cycle. UTILIZATION_ Max indicates the maximum value of port bandwidth utilization in a monitoring cycle.
Thanks!

No, the unit time is usually 1 second. The monitoring period is usually 15 minutes.  

Dear Samarin
PORT_BW_UTILIZATION indicates the port bandwidth usage in a period (5 min or 15 min or a day).

It calculation how many the current bandwidth (Mbps) or current bandwidth from max bandwidth (%), but it show it in a period (5 min or 15 min or a day).


PORT_BW_UTILIZATION_AVG = the average utilization in 5 min or 15 min or a day.
PORT_BW_UTILIZATION_MIN = the minimum utilization in 5 min or 15 min or a day.
PORT_BW_UTILIZATION_MAX = the max utilization in 5 min or 15 min or a day.
