How to get to know Cisco FTD 2130 throughput

[CiscoJane]

Hello all,

I would like to know how to calculate current throughput value at FTD 2130. What sort of information need to calculate it.? Thanks for any response to solve it.

Datasheet provide you what kind of throughput FTD can offer that model :

Depends on what you looking to do ? you can monitor in and out interfaces using NMS check what kind of traffic transit via FTD.

also some check you can do by following document  - if you have FMC and you can use dashboards.

Thanks @balaji.bandi , we do not have any monitor system. Can i calculate current through put overall by check cli "show traffic?". Can you please share any method to calculate? 

[balaji.bandi]

i would setup a some kind of NMS so you get average value over time see how much utilisation on the ports.

some command show currect information, does not give you peak information.

Are you using FMC? If so, just look at the health monitor and there you can see device interface statistics over time.

@Marvin Rhoads There a way to see average bandwidth/input output on an FTD interface in FMC? I don't see custom columns that I can add to widget/dashboard for that in FMC so I assume maybe not.

In addition to the datasheet mentioned by @balaji.bandi , remember that datasheet numbers are aggregate throughput. So don't expect that number to show up when you run speedtest from behind a firewall.
