NetXMS Support Forum

We are using NETXMS to MONITOR our optical Rx power of our network devices wherein we are getting the optical Rx Power in mW instead of dBm. please help us that how we get this Optical power values in dBm?

If your device only provides mW values, you will need to use a transform script on your DCI to convert to dBm.
The below should do it:
return 10*log10($1);

Dear Tursiops,

Thanks for the reply. its working fine.

I also need script to convert microwatt to dBm.

can you also provide the same.

1 milliwatt = 1000 microwatt, therefore
return 10*log10($1/1000);
will convert microwatt to dbm.

Hi Tursiops,

Its working fine....thanks for the support
