Are you using CE or Pro?

With Pro the best thing would be to create a bill which matches the ports that your provider is billing, that way you'll be basically collecting the same data that your provider is.

With CE, you can look at the '95th' line on traffic graphs. The red line is approximated 95th, but it's not accurate since we don't store 5-minute data for a full month.

Hi,

 

My data center bills me based on 95th percentile and Mbps, but Observium shows traffic as bits/second.

 

My monthly allowance is 100Mbps, how would I convert that to the bits/second in 95th? They also state they bill me on bandwidth utilization, not data used.

 

Finally, they state they use 5 minute intervals for data collection, I guess that’s also called ‘polling’ if I’m not mistaken? I could not find any info on how often the data is collected.

 

Just to clarify, if I got the calculation right – 100Mbps = 30TB /mo (rounded off).
