interfaceTopNNormalizationReq
Module: INTERFACETOPN-MIB
OID (symbolic): INTERFACETOPN-MIB::interfaceTopNNormalizationReq
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.16.27.1.2.1.4
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: TruthValue
Access: read-create
Description: This object indicates whether normalization is required in the
computation of the selected value.
If the value of this object is 'true', the value of the selected variable will be multiplied by a factor equal to the interfaceTopNNormalizationFactor divided by the value of effective speed of the interface
If the value of this object is 'false', the value of the selected variable will be taken 'as is' in the TopN computation.
If the value of the object interfaceTopNSampleType is bandwidthPercentage(3), the object interfaceTopNNormalizationReq cannot take the value 'true'.
The value of this object MUST be false if the effective speed of the interface sub-layer as determined from ifSpeed is zero. This conforms to the ifSpeed definition in [RFC2863]for a sub-layer that has no concept of bandwidth.
This object may not be modified if the associated interfaceTopNControlStatus object is equal to active(1).
What is interfaceTopNNormalizationReq?
This read-create boolean indicates whether the sampled Top N value should be normalized by multiplying it by interfaceTopNNormalizationFactor divided by the interface's effective speed; it must be false if the sample type is bandwidthPercentage or if the interface's ifSpeed is zero. Admins enable this to fairly compare interfaces of differing link speeds by scaling raw counter values relative to bandwidth. For example, enabling normalization lets a report rank a 10 Mbps and a 1 Gbps interface on comparable terms rather than letting the faster link always dominate by raw octet count.
