How to check Bandwidth Usage

Once you’ve clicked on the “Broadband” section on the left hand side, you can click into the Broadband circuit of interest. This will provide you with access to detailed information relating to the selected circuit.

From this page you can see the IPs relating to the circuit such as the public IP range assigned under the customer network, the gateway IP and the PPPoE information that will be used on the router to bring the circuit online.

Within the circuit page, look at the left-hand side to find the “Usage” option. Upon selecting it, a graph will be displayed, showcasing the Download and Upload data for the last 30 days. This visual representation provides a clear overview of the bandwidth usage, as illustrated below.

You can zoom into specific time frames to get a closer view of what the bandwidth usage was like on a day-to-day basis and even down to the hour if needed. You can do this by dragging and dropping your cursor over a selected area on the graph which will allow you to zoom into that section, you can also reset the zoom or save a copy of the graph as an image by clicking the referenced actions under the graph.

For Broadband based connections, we store bandwidth usage metrics for up to a month, this means you are to view the usage graphs for any time needed providing it is within the last 30 days.

Once you’ve clicked on the “Leased Line” section on the left-hand side, you can click into the Leased Line circuit of interest. This will provide you with access to detailed information relating to the selected circuit.

From this page you can see the IPs relating to the circuit such as the public IP range assigned under the customer network, the transit speed of the circuit (download and upload speed due to a leased line being a symmetrical circuit) and also the bearer speed (the speeds the circuit is physically capable of, usually up to 100Mbps or up to 1Gbps).

Within the circuit page, look at the left-hand side to find the “Usage” option. You may need to select the relevant interface from the dropdown under the timeframe setting. The correct interface will be labelled with the circuit reference which you can find on the Leased lines details page under Circuit Ref. This visual representation provides a clear overview of the bandwidth usage, as illustrated below.

You can zoom into specific time frames to get a closer view of what the bandwidth usage was like on a day-to-day basis and even down to the hour if needed. You can do this by modifying the timeframe above the graphs with the start and end date you require. You can also save a copy of the graph as an image by clicking the blue download button at the top right of the usage section.

Once you’ve clicked on the “DarkLight” section on the left-hand side, you can click into the DarkLight circuit of interest. This will provide you with access to detailed information relating to the selected circuit.

From this page you can see the IPs relating to the circuit such as the public IP range assigned under the IP details and the service speed.

Within the circuit page, look at the left-hand side to find the “Usage” option. Upon selecting it, a graph will be displayed, showcasing the Download and Upload data for the last 7 days. This visual representation provides a clear overview of the bandwidth usage, as illustrated below.

For Darklight circuits, bandwidth usage metrics are retained for 1 week.
