Gateway → Get Ports Bandwidth Usage
AI-generatedOverview
This node interacts with the Aruba Central API to retrieve bandwidth usage data for ports on a specified gateway device. It is useful for network administrators who want to monitor network traffic and bandwidth consumption on specific gateway ports over a defined time range.
Use Case Examples
- A network admin wants to monitor bandwidth usage on port GE0/0/1 of a gateway device with a specific serial number to troubleshoot network congestion.
- An IT team needs to gather bandwidth usage statistics from a gateway device for reporting and capacity planning.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Domain | Specifies the domain of the Aruba Central API to use, defaulting to 'monitoring' for network monitoring tasks. |
| Serial | The serial number of the gateway device to query for port bandwidth usage. |
| Additional Fields | Optional parameters to filter the bandwidth usage data, including 'From Timestamp' and 'To Timestamp' to specify the time range (epoch seconds), and 'Port' to filter by a specific port (e.g., GE0/0/1). |
Output
JSON
port- The identifier of the port on the gateway device.bandwidthUsage- The bandwidth usage data for the specified port, typically including metrics such as bytes sent and received.timestamp- The timestamp for the bandwidth usage data point, usually in epoch seconds.
Dependencies
- Requires an API key credential for Aruba Central OAuth2 authentication to access the Aruba Central API.
Troubleshooting
- Common issues include invalid or missing serial number, resulting in no data returned or errors from the API.
- Incorrect timestamps (from_timestamp or to_timestamp) may cause no data to be returned or API errors; ensure timestamps are in epoch seconds and logically ordered.
- Network connectivity or authentication failures with Aruba Central API can cause errors; verify API credentials and network access.
