It means that you are only using 180kbps of your 1540kbps T-1 service.  From 
the information given though, we don't really know how much bandwith you 
_actually_ have though because you are using Frame-Relay.  To determine the 
real amount of bandwith you have, you'd need to know the CIR and CBR of your 
Frame-relay circuit.

(Explanation:  The T-1 just connects you to a frame-relay switch in a 
service providers office.  If the service provider sells you a 56k CIR 
circuit, then you are going to get around 56k of data through it, regardless 
of how big the connection to the service provider is.)

Subject: MRTG and T1

What's up everybody.... I have just installed MRTG and am monitoring our T1.
My question is this:

The max Bytes Per Second only goes up to 180k. How does this correlate to
actual bandwidth being used up on my pipe? I have a 2600 with a built in
CSU/DSU (bandwidth set to 1536kbps).... over frame relay.

(see .gif for example)

I've been looking on CCO for the max kbps that it can actually route, but no
luck. I'm assuming that it can handle the 1536?

Cheers,
Jeff
