Andrey, I agree with your solution... but I'm surprised, and interested in how you will use flows. Why do you care about the amound of data transferred?
For us, it's about seeing an unexpected high utilization and then comparing the flow data to show the source or destination of that high bandwidth burst. All that is based on per second utilization, not on how much data was transferred. To me that doesn't matter. How do you use it?

When I comes to amount of data transferred bytes are preferable, while in link speed I'd go for bits. I think there should be a choice to display bytes or bits, but I'd stay with bytes in case of the absence of that setting. __________________________________________________________ Andrey Gordon | Integrity Interactive | Network Engineer | +1.781.398.3518 > From: "Konowal, Ed" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Reply-To: InterMapper Discussion <[email protected]> > Date: Tue, 16 Sep 2008 08:58:37 -0400 > To: InterMapper Discussion <[email protected]> > Subject: [IM-Talk] Flows: Bytes/bits > > Why do you display the flow data in bytes?
