Is there is any possibility whether spectrum can monitor the link speed in mbps format? I don't want to do in interface % ,Bandwidth IN or OUT . Looking solutions for achieving in mbps .Anyone tried or any suggestions.

Good afternoon friend !

I do not know if it will help you in your problem!
But there is an attribute in the "X_ifSpeed" interface (0x12913) that you can enter speed value.

As Spectrum gets the interface from the SysObject IfSpeed which is measured in bits per second, this is why we do not display the values in Spectrum.  Bandwidth is also a calculated attribute and by default we more or less use the formula mentioned here:

If you are looking for Mbps instead of Utilization % out of the box, I would encourage you to raise an Enhancement Request for this idea.

Best regards,

One way to achieve this would be to have a Watcher set up with the appropriate formula to get Mbps and then customize the performance views to add a graph on that value. Did you try that? I would give it a try...

Hi Christophe ,

Have you got any chance to test the alert.
