Estimating inbound traffic
To estimate the total data, pick the model that most closely matches your environment:
| NUMBER OF SERVERS | NODES | INTERFACES | ALERTS | TRAPS | SYSLOG | IPSLA OPERATIONS | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| SMALL | 5 | 5,000 | 20,000 | 15,000 | 15,000 | 15,000 | 20,000 |
| MEDIUM | 10 | 10,000 | 40,000 | 50,000 | 50,000 | 50,000 | 40,000 |
| LARGE | 30 | 100,000 | 115,000 | 200,000 | 200,000 | 200,000 | 100,000 |
The inbound data received per polling cycle for your model is listed in the chart below.
