Devices Impacted by Highly Utilized Ports Report


The Devices Impacted by Highly Utilized Ports report detailed information about the ports for which utilization statistics are above the threshold you configure. A port is displayed in the report if the port is up and historical data collection has been enabled on the device long enough for statistic collection.

  NOTE: Use the Port Capacity Chart section of the Impact Analysis options to configure the threshold ExtremeCloud IQ Site Engine uses to determine port utilization.
