Bandwidth management on FE

[abhishek.mittal]

Dear All,

We are using Cisco 3600 series back bone router at our office.And we have assigned many secondary IP addresses on Fast Ethernet port.And this is one ethernet bridge radio link.

So we are not able to see the bandwidth traffic saperately on that fast ethernet port.Kindly advise me ,how to see or measure the bandwidth traffic for a particular IP address basis.

I will be thankful to you.

Regards

Hi,

One thing that you could do is to activate ip accounting on that interface. IP accounting records the number of bytes and packets switched through the router on source and destination basis. Only the transit traffic on outbound basis is measured.

Interface FastEthernet 1/0

ip accounting

Check this with command - show ip accounting.

Actvivating this will proberbly disable some switching speedup technics and make your router less quick.

This is one way to go;

This could be done with SNMP polling or RMON configurations.

THis URL will get you started and hopefully give the solution you wants.
