Switch → Switch Ports Bandwidth Usage
AI-generatedOverview
This node interacts with the Aruba Central API to retrieve bandwidth usage data for switch ports. It is useful for network administrators who want to monitor the bandwidth consumption on specific switch ports over a defined time range. For example, it can be used to analyze traffic patterns, identify bandwidth bottlenecks, or monitor uplink port usage on a particular switch.
Use Case Examples
- Monitoring bandwidth usage on a switch to identify heavy traffic ports.
- Filtering bandwidth data for a specific port to troubleshoot network issues.
- Retrieving bandwidth usage data for uplink ports only to assess network backbone load.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Domain | Specifies the domain of the Aruba Central API to use, such as monitoring or configuration. |
| Serial | Serial number of the switch to get port bandwidth usage for. |
| From | Start time for data retrieval; defaults to current time minus 3 hours if not specified. |
| To | End time for data retrieval; defaults to current time if not specified. |
| Additional Fields | Optional filters and settings for the bandwidth usage query. |
Output
JSON
port- Port identifier for which bandwidth usage data is reported.bandwidthUsage- Bandwidth usage metrics for the specified port over the requested time range.timestamp- Timestamp of the bandwidth usage data point.
Dependencies
- Aruba Central API with OAuth2 authentication
Troubleshooting
- Ensure the serial number of the switch is correct and the device is managed by Aruba Central.
- Verify that the OAuth2 credentials for Aruba Central API are valid and have necessary permissions.
- Check that the 'from' and 'to' timestamps are in correct format and logical order (from <= to).
- If filtering by port or uplink, ensure the port identifier is valid for the specified switch.
