rkruz,

You are probably misinterpreting the axis. The Y axis is bits per second, but bits per sample. Thus if you traffic is flowing at about 40Mbps, you will see 40 000 000 bits in one sample if you set a 1 second sample, you will see something like 4 000 000 bits per sample if you have a 0.1s sample rate (and so on)

Regards, Martin

the summary page shows ave of 40 Mbps.
If I view the I/O graph set a 1s tick interval the average over 1s is about the same.
If I set the I/O graph tick interval to .1s and then average data over 1s the ave is about 4Mbps.
If I set the I/O graph tick interval to .01s then the average is about 0.4 Mbps.

How should I interpret the graphs under various intervals to get a good estimate of rate?
