Calculating Throughput
- Login to the ASA via the CLI and run the ‘clear traffic’ and ‘clear interface’ commands to zero out the statistics.
- Wait about 5 minutes for ASA to gather statistics on traffic traversing the firewall.
- Run the ‘show traffic’ command.
- Go to the section “Aggregated Traffic on Physical Interface”
What is ASA throughput?
Calculating Throughput on the ASA. Solution: For Calculating Throughput on the ASA, We have to add received or Transmit traffic in bytes/sec on all physical interfaces: 26066000 + 23001 + 12071002 = 38160003 Bytes/sec.
