Optimizing bandwidth utilization when exporting telemetry data from a network device

A network device may receive, from a collector device, a request for telemetry data associated with service interfaces and counters of the network device. The network device may determine, based on the request, a first quantity of the service interfaces and a second quantity of the counters. The network device may determine a first time interval to send delta values of the telemetry data associated with the service interfaces and the counters, and a second time interval to send absolute values of the telemetry data, based on the first time interval, the first quantity of the service interfaces, and the second quantity of the counters. The network device may provide, to the collector device, the absolute values of the telemetry data based on the second time interval and may provide, to the collector device, the delta values of the telemetry data based on the first time interval.

SAMPLING SYNCHRONIZATION THROUGH GPS SIGNALS

A distributed data acquisition system comprising multiple, physically unconnected, data acquisition units that can be in wireless communication with a remote host, timestamps measurement data with sub-microsecond time base accuracy of sampling clock relative to an absolute timeframe. Each unit has a GPS receiver for deriving an absolute time. An analog-to-digital converter samples measurement data using a sampling clock. A hardware logic circuit, such as a field programmable gate array, associates batches of the measurement data with corresponding timestamps representing the current absolute time. A time offset bias may be compensated by a comparison of timestamps with nominal time based on start time and nominal sampling rate. Additionally, the sampling clock may be synchronized using time pulses from the GPS receiver. An initial start of ADC sampling by all data acquisition units may be also synchronized.

SAMPLING SYNCHRONIZATION THROUGH GPS SIGNALS

A method uses a distributed data acquisition system with multiple, physically unconnected, data acquisition units, that can be in wireless communication with a remote host, to timestamp measurement data with sub-microsecond time base accuracy of sampling clock relative to an absolute timeframe. A current absolute time is derived from messages received from a satellite radio beacon positioning system (GPS). Measurement data is sampled by each unit at a specified sampling rate. Using hardware logic, batches of sampled data are associated with corresponding timestamps representing the absolute time at which the data was sampled. Data and timestamps may be transmitted to the host. A time offset bias is compensated by comparing timestamps against a nominal time based on start time and nominal sampling rate. The sampling clock rate may be disciplined using time pulses from the GPS receiver. An initial start of data sampling by all units can also be synchronized.
