asynchronous interface alerting

Hi all,
Is there any way of alerting on TX/RX load of an interface (ATM and other xDSL interfaces)? We use mostly Cisco and so we can configure bandwidth and bandwidth receive, so we could define the asynchronous bandwidths. Observium gets the ifSpeed from the bandwidth value, so if we define an alert for TX/RX load, it will almost always report on wrong loads. Interface bandwidth is adopted from the ATM sync speeds, but this is the TX load, the RX load isn't reported on the interface normally. We could define this manually or Observium could maybe get this from the DSL statistics. [cid:image001.png@01CF473C.15E85030]

So use the TX and RX values from the DSL statistics: [cid:image003.png@01CF473C.80BD6760]
Is this already possible or could this otherwise be built? Met vriendelijke groet, Bastiaan Topper

Hi Bastiaan,
I was thinking about this yesterday, I'm not quite sure how to do it yet, but we already know about it :)
