Please note that the Burst analysis is done with 1 millisecond resolution by default. In our example, the router is connected with 1 GBit/s and it can send more than the configured bandwidth. This is shown in the display as an utilization of ">> 100%" and indicates a burst that might not be able to be handeled by this uplink. | |||

The MAC burst detection can be used for a specific end device ( a file server,... ) or for the gateway of an uplink ( router,... ). It allows to monitor links and end devices even in out-of-band installations. | |||
