It Worked…!!!

After a very long search to have a plugin which shows Total Bandwidth on Linux/AIX/Unix Interfaces, I must say that this simple and effective plugins worked well.

Below is my command output:

./check_bw.sh -H 192.16.1.1 -b 100 -v 1 -C public -m input -i eth0 -p 15
Current input bandwidth usage is 80.011 Mb/s, 80.00% used

./check_bw.sh -H 192.168.1.1 -b 100 -v 1 -C public -m output -i eth0 -p 15
Current output bandwidth usage is 2.102 Mb/s, 2.00% used

Here, it is mandatory to mention 2 commands, input and output from the respective server.

The parameter understanding is,
-b=100 Mbps
-p = Every 15 seconds. (You can change this to 10 Mbps or 1000 Mbps as per the server configuration)

The confusing part is, what to give for “Windows Server Network Card”, which is always “Local Area Connection” name…??? 🙁

Except Windows, this is a superb plugin.

Hats off the creator.
