Just my curiosity. May I ask how we can measure the link capacity

Load sampled and measured instantaneously, or averaging over a certain
period of time (granularity)?

These are questions have bothered me for long. Don't know if I can ask
about these by the way. I take care of the radio access network

For this, we look at simple 5-minute based SNMP data over the period.
Nothing too fancy. It's stable
