MONITOR BANDWIDTH CONSUMPTION IN A PRTG ENTERPRISE MONITOR ENVIRONMENT

Originally published on November 24, 2021 by Jasmin Kahriman

I recently wrote an article that explains how much bandwidth is consumed between
the PRTG core server and remote probes. For the sake of context, a few years ago
our reseller Omicron AG from Switzerland set up an installation of PRTG with
10,000 SNMP sensors for one of their customers. Within minutes, they could see
that they were only generating 400 kbit/s of network traffic for 10,000 sensors
with a one-minute scanning interval (which is less than 3 kbit/s per switch)! If
you missed it, you can read it here.



For larger networks, we provide you with our enterprise solution called Paessler
PRTG Enterprise Monitor. It scales to large IT environments with thousands of
devices and systems across multiple locations, providing an easy way to gain
visibility and control of increasingly complex infrastructures. My teammate
Shaun did a great video about it.



 

PRTG Enterprise Monitor consists of a few components including ITOps Board,
Elasticsearch, IIS, and SQL server. ITOps Board is integrated with PRTG Core
servers and collects the sensors' data per defined time interval. The sensors'
data is stored in Elasticsearch, the SQL database stores information about the
license, boards, and business services. PRTG Enterprise Monitor is dependent on
Active Directory.
The goal of today's article is to show you how you can monitor bandwidth used
between ITOps Board, PRTG Core servers, and other relevant components. Before
going into sensor configuration, let's briefly cover our backend infrastructure.


THE BACKEND INFRASTRUCTURE

In my demo environment, ITOps Board, IIS (Microsoft webserver), and
Elasticsearch are installed on the same machine (Windows Server 2019) and SQL
server is installed on a dedicated Windows Server. All of these components
(except SQL) are part of the PRTG Enterprise Monitor installer.

There are six integrations (6 x PRTG core servers), consisting of 23,000 sensors
(components). The data you see in the screenshot is generated by sensors,
created by IT Admin in ITOps Board UI.





INSTALL REMOTE PROBE ON ITOPS BOARD MACHINE

In order to monitor network traffic between ITOps Board and PRTG core server or
other components, you need to install a remote probe on your ITOps Board machine
and use a Packet Sniffer (Custom) sensor. This sensor comes into consideration
if your network devices do not support SNMP or Flow monitoring to measure
bandwidth usage and if you need to differentiate the bandwidth usage by network
protocol and/or IP addresses. It is important to understand that the Packet
Sniffer sensor can only access and inspect data packages that flow through the
network interfaces of the probe system.




MONITOR BANDWIDTH BETWEEN ITOPS BOARD AND PRTG CORE SERVERS

Add the Packet Sniffer sensor on the Remote Probe hosted on your ITOps Board.
Once you add it, you need to choose the active/used network card and add a
corresponding filter(s). You need to add the source and destination IPs of your
PRTG Core server in the “Include Filter” field. By using these filters, Packet
Sniffer will perform monitoring only for traffic going to and coming from
specified IP addresses.



Your sensor will need some time to get the first values. You might see something
similar to this.




MONITOR BANDWIDTH BETWEEN ITOPS BOARD AND SQL SERVER

The license you enter in ITOps Board, and the board and services you create in
ITOps Board are stored in the Microsoft SQL database. According to the
screenshot below, the six PRTG integrations have consumed 1.46 GB of database
space in the last 1.5 years.



Add the Packet Sniffer (Custom) sensor, choose active network card, and
configure filters and channels. So, in my case, I used the filter SourceIP
[192.168.1.10] or DestinationIP [192.168.1.10], which points to the IP address
of the SQL server.



After some time, you will see bandwidth metrics within your sensor. The last
value (speed) shows that the SQL server consumed 0,16 Mbit/s and had a maximum
bandwidth of 19 Mbit/s.




MONITOR REQUEST BYTES ON MICROSOFT IIS

The Microsoft IIS (Microsoft webserver) is used to access the ITOps Board UI. In
this case, we will use the PerfCounter Custom sensor to get insight into request
bytes per second. Add the following counter.


\\ITOPSBOARD\ASP.NET Apps v4.0.30319(_LM_W3SVC_9992_ROOT)\Request Bytes Out
Total::Bytes \\ITOPSBOARD\ASP.NET Apps v4.0.30319(_LM_W3SVC_9992_ROOT)\Request
Bytes In Total::Bytes




After the first scan, your sensors will show total incoming and outgoing request
bytes.




THE DASHBOARD

With the PRTG Map Designer, you can create custom web pages as maps or
dashboards that represent your network. As a result, you might have something
similar to my map that shows the status of bandwidth consumption within the PRTG
Enterprise Monitor environment.

Why Bandwidth Monitoring is so crucial?

Hi Ray - in general, it is highly recommended to know and measure bandwidth
consumption in any size network. This is one of the common questions asked by IT
folks, they want to know how much bandwidth is consumed by sending hundreds or
thousands of SNMP, WMI, or other queries. With this article, we wanted to show a
better picture from the PRTG Enterprise Monitoring standpoint. Hope this helps.
