worng Traffic data ? (Bits Transmitted Chart)

[m_mill]

Hey guys,

i have attached a picture from my Traffic Monitoring on a Firewall. Normaly these values increase, they don't drop. The Blue Graph is droping down to 0,8 GB.

Where should i search for this problem? Agent, Server, or is this maybe a Debian problem?


Thanks

What is the resource type here (in HQ)? Linux Platform interface? Network Device?
Maybe the device resets that counter, possibly after a reboot or server restart?

Hey John,

its monitored with the NetworkServer Interface dialog. I attach a new picture with description. As you see eth3 is going crazy. Its a Intel 1000Gbit Desktopcard. The other cards are 3com 100mibt :3c59x .

A reboot or restart cant be the problem. Uptime is 22 days. Any one suggestions?

Thanks

I watched the docs at :http://www.hyperic.com/support/docs/sigar/

It looks how i though it would be. The agent gets only one value about tx/rx http://www.hyperic.com/support/docs/sigar/org/hyperic/sigar/NetInterfaceStat.html#getRxBytes()

After that the hyperic Server calculates the "overall Bits Received"

So this looks like a bug or am i worng?

Sorry for double post. On this screen it looks like that the data from the different eth's sometimes dont go to the right interface.
