Thanks! I guess I should have explored more in Management Central to
see what was clickable. That does show me what I wanted to know

Subject: Re: iSeries NIC Utilization

We use Paessler's Traffic Grapher and it does see each interface. What
we see nearly always though is that utilization of the interface is
*reallywaylow. If you watch the Management Central Graph for 'Maximum'
you'll at least know the highest line utilization. Then if you click on

that graph it will show the detail on the right for each ethernet line.
It IS in there!

Our iSeries has 3 NICs. Using our external and internal DNS tables we

a
second. The third is there as a backup in case either of the others
fail
and we can switch over to this third NIC manually. All three are
online,
included the spare. I would like to be able to see how much traffic
is
coming in on the two active NICs and also see which of the three NICs
traffic is going out on. Management Central monitor can start a LAN
utilization monitor but it does not let me pick which NIC to watch so
I
can only assume it's watching all traffic. I think I could add an
external SNMP monitor to check that way but wanted to be able to check
internally to the iSeries and possible log use to a database.



Thanks
