Traffic Heat (Freeform)

date_range 30-May-23

Traffic and resource utilization information is available in Freeform blueprints as of Apstra version 4.1.2.

From the blueprint, navigate to Active > Physical > Topology. In the status panel on the right you can quickly see if your network is having any issues. In this section, we’re looking at Traffic Heat, whose status indicator is at the bottom of the panel. You can see more details by selecting Traffic Heat from the Layer drop-down list.

The colors represent different available/used capacity based on the current system level TX/RX, averaged to 2 minutes, by default. If the aggregated TX or RX across all the device interfaces is < 20% it's green. If it's between 21-40%, it's yellow and so on. For each 20% difference, capacity is shown with a different color. (Server color is calculated based on the interface counters of the leaf ports facing that server.) To see RX/TX per interface for a single node, hover over the node.
