Good day everyone,

I’m new here and would like to ask a quick question. Currently, we are using Centreon 22.10 with an IT 100 license. We have a Cisco router and we use “Net-Cisco-Standard-SNMP-custom” template to monitor it. We can monitor most of it including interface bandwidth.

Lately, we notice that the Cisco router’s LAN and WAN interfaces' bandwidth usages sometimes spike. However, we do not know which device/user is using too much bandwidth. So we would like to monitor it based on the top ten users, top ten applications/protocols something like that.

Can anyone advise how can we achieve it using Centreon? We do not want to implement another monitoring tool/software tho.

thank you

With Cisco Standard you can check ipsla or QOS, maybe this will help you: https://docs.centreon.com/pp/integrations/plugin-packs/procedures/network-cisco-standard-snmp/
