ifOutErrors. Lists the number of outbound packets with errors, on the selected
interface, that prevent the packets from being delivered to a higher-layer
protocol. The associated OID is 1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.20.
ifInDiscards. List the number of inbound packets, on the selected interface, that
were discarded though no errors were detected to prevent their transmission. One
possible reason for discarding such a packet could be to free up buffer space. The
associated OID is 1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.13.

Note: All of the above OIDs point to values of type "counter," and therefore their raw value
by itself is not meaningful. The difference between the values obtained from two
consecutive polls provides meaningful data.
Data collection interval (minutes). Enter how often you want data to be collected for
the selected item or items. This value represents the number of minutes between
each collection.
Click Advanced to access Data Collection Advanced Settings.
Click Speed to override the interface speed. This option is only available when you have
selected Specific interfaces.
Important: You cannot change the speed for an interface unless you have selected Specific
Interfaces.
Note: If the Interface Utilization Performance Monitor was not used during Device Discovery,
64-bit high capacity counters are not used to poll interface traffic counters. You need to
manually change the device's polling properties in the device properties to use high capacity
counters.
Monitored devices exceeds license limit
This option compares the number of devices allowed by your WhatsUp Gold license against
the number of devices configured in the application. If you reach the device count limit
allowed by your WhatsUp Gold license, you will are not able to add any additional devices to
the WhatsUp Gold configuration.
You can either purchase an upgrade to a license with a higher device count limit, or remove
un-needed or non-critical devices from your WhatsUp Gold system.
Licensing and support information is available on the MyIpswitch licensing portal

view and manage Ipswitch product licenses.
