BigIron(config)# show relative-utilization 1

30-sec total uplink packet count = 3011
packet count ratio (%)
1/ 2:60 1/ 3:40
In this example, ports 1/2 and 1/3 are sending traffic to port 1/1. Port 1/2 and port 1/3 are isolated (not shared by
multiple clients) and typically do not exchange traffic with other ports except for the uplink port, 1/1.
Syntax: show relative-utilization <num>
The <num> parameter specifies the list number.
NOTE: The example above represents a pure configuration in which traffic is exchanged only by ports 1/2 and
1/1, and by ports 1/3 and 1/1. For this reason, the percentages for the two downlink ports equal 100%. In some
cases, the percentages do not always equal 100%. This is true in cases where the ports exchange some traffic
with other ports in the system or when the downlink ports are configured together in a port-based VLAN.
In the following example, ports 1/2 and 1/3 are in the same port-based VLAN.

1/ 2:100 1/ 3:100
Here is another example showing different data for the same link utilization list. In this example, port 1/2 is
connected to a hub and is sending traffic to port 1/1. Port 1/3 is unconnected.
