1) take separate deltas for all those different figures
2) yes you need to gather this data in db server
3) identify the network interface cards through which your test traffic goes
and use netstat on those only (netstat -i should allow you to specify
network interfaces to measure)

Subject: RE: N/w Bottleneck Check under Benchmark Load ?
Thanks V much Tanel for responding, as always
Qs 1 Towards calculating the TCP Traffic delta, From the netstat -f inet -p
tcp" Output (sample below), Is adding the TOP 3 Values "in bytes" reasonable
enough?
Qs 2 Should these readings be taken from the DB Server since it is at one
end of the configuration Chain?
Config Chain Diagram:-
Load Generator m/c <-> APP Servers <-> DB Server m/c
Qs 3 Additionally the APP Server has multiple Network Cards. How is the
amount of TCP Traffic sent/received to/from the APP to the DB Server to be
Calculated?
NOTE - Command "netstat -f inet -p tcp" does NOT have an IP Address
specification
Cheers
Vivek
P.S. "netstat -f inet -p tcp" Sample Output:-
tcp:
4065625909 packets sent
3774590048 data packets (4134580083 bytes)
24539 data packets (21547168 bytes) retransmitted
...
711924647 packets received
4006391082 acks (for 4141693631 bytes)
2497169 duplicate acks
0 acks for unsent data
126381026 packets (2263129970 bytes) received in-sequence

Hi Vivek,
As I mentioned in the private reply, you need to take two snapshots of
netstat output (over 10 sec interval for example) and calculate delta
between corresponding bytes/sent values (also for bytes received values) to
see whether the TCP traffic is anywhere near your network link bandwidth. If
it is you're experiencing network link bandwidth issue. If it isn't then
it's something else (like wrong TCP buffersize settings but it could also
indicate a bottleneck in your (V)LAN infrastructure)
