Issue with low interface utilization

Postby karlmich » Mon Feb 06, 2012 2:03 pm

Hi,

just saw Thomas Pore on a SonicWALL Event in Lisbon last week and started immediately to evaluate your software.
The bad thing is that i have encountered a really weird problem. But lets talk so words about my setup and what i have added by now:

- newest Scrutinizer Version
- 2x Sonicwall E5500 HA Cluster
- 1x Sonicwall E3500 HA Cluster
- 2x Procurve 5400 Series Switches

The Sonicwalls are configured to export Flows with the "Realtime w Bulk" Setting by using IPFIX with extensions and are set to export "all" Flows.

The HPs are configured using your FAQ and are working like a charm. No Action needed here :)

ON the SonicWALLs i should usually see some load on the WAN like 50 - 60 Mbit/s on average. What i can see in Scrutinizer is about 300 - 600 Kb/s which is nothing compared to the real load.

I have done a lot on reseaching on the net regarding this issue but haven't found much useful stuff out there.

Kind Regards,

Michael

Hello,

Can you send me a screenshot of your Sonicwall netflow config. Sounds like we may not be exporting on the correct time intervals.

Thanks,
Scott
