VIEW FIBER BANDWIDTH USAGE

Summary: This procedure details the steps required to successfully utilize the NMIC GUI software to view the used bandwidth on a given fiber link between nodes. This procedure can be used to check for available bandwidth when assigning new connections. This procedure assumes the administrator has successfully accessed and launched the NMIC GUI software per NTP-015.

1.To view the bandwidth used between all nodes in the network, use the left mouse button to select Configuration, Connection, and View Fiber Bandwidth Usage, (or using the direct selection keys, Alt+C, Alt+N, then Alt+F). Refer to Figure 716-1.

2.The Cellworx Vision Fiber Bandwidth Usage window appears. Refer to Figure 716-2. The information displayed lists all NEs discovered on the ring, the NEs that they are connected to, and the amount of bandwidth (in Kbps) assigned between them on the ring.

3.To view the bandwidth being utilized between two individual nodes within the network, use the right mouse button and point and click on the fiber link between the two nodes. Again, the pop-up window Fiber Bandwidth Usage appears. displaying the bandwidth usage on the fiber selected between the two nodes. The values provided in this window are measured in kilobits per second (Kbps).

3.Select Close to return to the Cellworx Vision network display.

Stop! You have completed this procedure.
