Displaying Utilization Percentages for an Uplink
After you configure an uplink utilization list, you can display the list to observe the percentage of the uplink’s bandwidth that each of the downlink ports used during the most recent
To display uplink utilization percentages, use either of the following methods.
USING THE CLI
To display an uplink utilization list, enter a command such as the following at any level of the CLI:
HP9300(config)# show
uplink: ethe | 1 |
| |
total | uplink packet count = 3011 | ||
packet | count | ratio (%) | |
1/ 2:60 | 1/ | 3:40 | |
In this example, ports 1/2 and 1/3 are sending traffic to port 1/1. Port 1/2 and port 1/3 are isolated (not shared by multiple clients) and typically do not exchange traffic with other ports except for the uplink port, 1/1.
Syntax: show
The <num> parameter specifies the list number.
NOTE: The example above represents a pure configuration in which traffic is exchanged only by ports 1/2 and 1/1, and by ports 1/3 and 1/1. For this reason, the percentages for the two downlink ports equal 100%. In some cases, the percentages do not always equal 100%. This is true in cases where the ports exchange some traffic with other ports in the system or when the downlink ports are configured together in a
In the following example, ports 1/2 and 1/3 are in the same
HP9300(config)# show
uplink: ethe | 1 | |
total | uplink packet count = 3011 | |
packet | count | ratio (%) |
1/ 2:100 | 1/ 3:100 | |
Here is another example showing different data for the same link utilization list. In this example, port 1/2 is connected to a hub and is sending traffic to port 1/1. Port 1/3 is unconnected.
HP9300(config)# | show | ||
uplink: ethe | 1 |
| |
total | uplink packet count = 2996 | ||
packet | count | ratio (%) | |
1 /2:100 | 1/ | ||
