Monitor bandwidth utilization in WUG


Another good Jscript for Whats Up Gold. Customize the nMaxUtilizationPercentage based on your situation.

For instance, the ISP provides my client 10Mbps WAN connection, and my client firewall’s outside interface is 100Mbps. So if I want a alarm to be trigger when the bandwidth utilization higher than 90% (9Mbps), I need to change the nMaxUtilizationPercentage to 9.

Very useful script!!

  1. Hey Jackie,

    Great script. Are you using this as an active monitor? Have you played around with the performance monitors and alert center? I think you might be able to accomplish the same result without the need for the script. Either way, it is a great script and a useful one too. Thanks for sharing it with the world and showing WhatsUp some love.

    Would you mind sharing it on our community web site as well? We have a section dedicated to scripts called the Script Library. http://community.whatsupgold.com

    1. Hi Jason, Thanks for commenting.

      Yes, I use it as an active monitor. And I also use performance monitors and alert center, but I did not see a place to do such thing. If I remember correctly, I get the script from the community library 🙂
