Nexus 5000 port utilization

Hi guys,

I am searching for an appropriate command to watch the port utilization of my N5k ethernet ports.

The "show interface eth1/x" just gives me the input and output rate for a port as a 5 minute average.

If possible I need updates every few seconds.

Is there any possibility to achieve this without NetFlow?

This is how it is done on a Fujitsu switch:

c221cb5 config2# show ether utilization

Port    TX/sec      Util      RX/sec      Util

Any help is appreciated!

I just found out that NetFlow is not supported on the N5k and also the load interval on per interface basis is not configurable like on Catalyst  switches.

But there must be any possibility to get accurate performance values out of this switch.

So one again my question who could help me on this?
