NSP utilization reports overview

General information

NSP utilization reports provide utilization or uptime information at the NE, port, SAP, or LSP level. NSP utilization reports support NEs managed by the NFM-P only, MDM (model-driven Nokia) only, or NFM-P+MDM-mediated NEs.

LAGs are not supported for MDM-only NEs and NFM-P+MDM-mediated NEs except for the Port Throughput Summary (NSP) and Port-LAG Details (NSP) reports.

There is a duplication of data in input controls when the NEs are dual managed.

Use cases

Capacity planning—Use the report to examine traffic usage and patterns to plan for capacity requirements.

Limitations

The utilization graph in forecast reports does not stretch when the forecast in the graph is unselected.
