Monitoring - KPI Utilization
Monitoring - KPI Utilization
Acquire a basic understanding of the data presented on the Monitoring - KPI Utilization page.
The Monitoring - KPI Utilization page presents data visualizations that enable an understanding of KPIs associated with network devices. In addition to data visualizations, the page provides a quick filter to enable the anrrowing of data without complex queries. Parameters include the following:
- Customer Name: Devices owned by specific customers.
- GSMA Code: Devices associated with a specific GSMA code.
- Data Source: Any supported data source used to track network devices and operating systems.
- Node Name: Specify a node by name.
- Device Type:Specify a device type.
- Interface Name: Specify a supported interface.

- RX Usage Interfaces: A table that provides details regarding all nodes that engaged inbound communications.
- KPIUtilzation:
- Top Nodes - CPUUtilization: A list of all nodes by name in descending order of CPU utilization.
- Top Nodes - Memory Utilization: A list of all nodes by name in descending order of memory utilization.
- Top Interfaces Tx_Interface Utilization: A list of all interfaces by name in descending order of outbound communicaitons.
- Top Interfaces - Rx_Interface Utilization: A list of all interfaces by name in descending order of outbound communicaitons.
- KPI Status
- Top Nodes by Node Down: A list of all nodes by the number of times they were down in descending order.
- Top Interfaces by Interface Down: A list of all interfaces by the number of times they were down in descending order.
- Top Nodes by BGPDown: A list of all nodes that were idle, indicating a BPG (Border Portal Gateway) failure, by the number of times they were idle in descending order.
- Top Nodes by Tunnel Down: A list of all tunnels by the number of times they were down in descending order.
- Solarwinds KPIUtilization - Interface in Errors: A list of all interfaces with the average number of input errors.
- Interface Out Errors: Interface in Errors: A list of all interfaces with the average number of output errors.
- Interface InDiscards: A list of all interfaces with the average number of inbound discards.
- Interface OutDiscards: A list of all interfaces with the average number of outbound discards.
- CPUUsage by Hour: A scatter chart indicating node CPU usage at a specific time with time stamp.
- Memory Usage: A scatter chart indicating node memory usage at a specific time with time stamp.
