Question

Volume Traffic calculation for a poller

+12

I imagine this question has been asked before.

I am looking to calculate the volume of traffic for a monitoring probe/plugin.

The goal is to estimate the cost if my poller were based on Azure to monitor on-site objects.

Hello,

Wouldn’t it be possible to monitor the network interface of your poller for a while and make some extrpolation (by unit of time, by service,etc.) ?

Hi,

You can try to do an average with the network card counters of your poller :

Average RX + TX = (RX bytes day N - RX bytes day 1 + TX bytes day N - TX bytes day 1)/(N-1)
