Monitoring bandwidth usage for sites

Use the Sites table to monitor bandwidth usage for each site in the network managed by IBM® Sametime® Bandwidth Manager.

About this task

The monitoring interface includes tabs for links, sites, link calls, and site calls. At the top level, the table on the Sites tab provides the following information:

  • How much bandwidth is currently used on a site?
  • How much unused bandwidth remains for the site?
  • What percentage of available bandwidth is currently being used?
  • How many calls are using the bandwidth on that site?

From the site monitoring area, you can drill down and see which calls are using the bandwidth in that site.
