Data Transfer Rates

Pulling the data transfer rates from an SNMP sensor was mildly tricky, as its currently only documented in the plugin's Github issues tracker.

  • The measurement rates (set in Visualization > Unit for Graphs) are in kilobits (v4.0.3) or bytes/sec (v4.0.4) (see Notes below)
  • The Multiplier option in the PRTG plugin had to be set to eiter .01, .139, .1349 or 0.000008 to display a correct reading

Notes

  • From v4.0.3 to v4.0.4, the calulcations vary greatly, so you'll have to compare PRTG to your charts to see what multiplier works best for you
  • In v4.0.4, using kilobits (as documented by PRTG) gave wildly incorrect values from what v4.0.3 offered, using bytes/sec with a different multiplier gave more accurate results
