You should take a look at some of the MIB-II and
RMON statistics that are usually available in the
various components of your network. These tell you
how much data is passing through over a certain time,
from this you can calculate a utilization statistic.
Using some of the MIB tools in Scotty you can get the values from your network devices. Or you may want to write a small Tcl/Tnm script to get the values then do some arithmetic on them.
For example:
>From RFC-1213, the IF-MIB, look at elements from
the ifTable (1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2) such as ifInOctets,
ifOutOctets and the various error counters.
There are extensions to those in RFC-1229 that
define longer (64-bit) counters that are more
useful for high-speed interfaces since they don't
wrap so fast. Look at ifXTable (1.3.6.1.2.1.31.1.1).
Then there are MIBs that are generic to certain
network devices, for example the EtherLike-MIB
defined in RFC-1643. In there you will find the dot3StatsTable (1.3.6.1.2.1.10.7.2) that has a lot
of detail for an ethernet device.
Hope this helps (by the way your English is very understandable, I hope my response is too!).
