Further to the info below - if there's only a single load given (as below), then it refers to the outbound load. I believe some later versions of IOS give load for both outbound and inbound directions. If you don't want to do the maths below to work out the Kbps, you can always just look further down the 'show int' display, to where it says something like... 5 minute input rate 16000 bits/sec, 7 packets/sec 5 minute output rate 2000 bits/sec, 5 packets/sec The input rate and output rate displayed should be accurate even if your bandwidth is configured incorrectly. The load figure is calculated using the bandwidth configured on the interface - if that's wrong, the displayed load will be wrong.

(Weighted five minute average.) 9 divided by 255 is 0.03529... or 3.5% of the available bandwith. The BW parameter says this is a 128Kbps connection, so back to the calculator... 3.5% x 128kbps = 4.48 average kpbs for the last 5 minutes. ----Original Message Follows---- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Load Date: Fri, 6 Oct 2000 10:45:30 +0200 (MEST) Hi, dose any one know what the load 9/255 means exactly. MTU 1500 bytes, BW 128 Kbit, DLY 20000 usec, rely 255/255, load 9/255 regards, Tary -- Sent through GMX FreeMail - http://www.gmx.net **NOTE: New CCNA/CCDA List has been formed.
