why the dude can’t graph more than 3,5 Gbps
I am also seeing this issue or something like it. There are drops in my throughput when running around or over 3.5Gb. Max it graphs is below 3.5Gb. I will go over all my configurations to be sure it isn’t an issue on my end.
Router is a 1072 6.47.10(long term) and dude is running on x86(6.48.4).

Dude currently only supports 32bit Octet Counters for easy graphs.
64bit Octet Counters are not supported (HC IfMib)
The 32 Bit Octet Counter will simply roll over more than once within your desired polling interval.
Calculation example:
2³² Counter * 8 Bits per Octet / 1000³ Gig /10 sec = 3.436 Gbps
If you shorten the polling interval, you will see higher peak bandwidth.
5 secs will give you 6.872 Gbps
You can nonetheless add custom charts and poll the HC IfMib. But Diff64() also has rollover problems, which are cumbersome to counteract.
Thank you. That does appear to be the problem I’m having. I will setup a new chart to use on the 10G interfaces with appropriate settings from now on.
