Port stats interval polling

Hi,
How often does the port statistics/utilization data get updated as I want to poll the values based on those intervals?

  • Hello,
    The port stats are received every 5mins. However we recommend not to pull this data right away, but query from the previous day, as “yesterday’s” (N-1) data will always be available but “today’s” (N) data may not be available. (Therefore, if you’d like to get today’s data its better if you query the next day).
