One thing to keep in mind..
A percentage can lie about network performance. If you take a network with a
low percentage of traffic based on byte count but a high number of small
packets ( Citrix), you can easily have an overloaded router/switch but

To all,
I'm monitoring a network and I'm seeing high network utilization
levels on the main (only) network segment. My question is that I've always
heard the rule is 60-70% and your in trouble and can start experiencing
