Technical Tip: How to split the inbound and outbound traffic report in Dashboard widget

[ychia]

Description
Bandwidth monitor widget showing as area graph, it shows cumulative bandwidth usage for inbound traffic and outbound traffic over the selected interface.

Solution

# config system admin
    edit admin
# config gui-dashboard
    edit 1               <----- This should be the Dashboard Status.
# config widget

Search for the ID you are using to monitor interface port, below is an example of my lab output,

edit 12
    set type tr-history
    set x-pos 11
    set width 2
    set height 1
    set interface "port2"

edit <ID>
    set width 4
end
end
end
