GossipSub

Key metrics on the Filecoin pubsub network

Bandwidth consumption statistics, Message bandwidth consumption, Number of duplicates, Block arrival times.

Bandwidth

Bandwidth consumption breakdown per direction and message type

Inbound Outbound Bandwidth Usage

Inbound Outbound Bandwidth Usage

Tracks the directional flow of network traffic through the GossipSub protocol, showing both inbound and outbound bandwidth usage measured in kilobytes per second. Data is aggregated in 5-minute intervals to provide a clear view of network communication patterns. This helps identify peak usage periods, network congestion, and the balance between data consumption and production across the Filecoin network.

Bandwidth Usage in Kilobytes/s agg. in 5m intervals

Bandwidth Usage by Message Type

Bandwidth Usage by Message Type

Breaks down GossipSub bandwidth usage by message type, showing how different kinds of network messages (blocks, transactions, metadata, etc.) contribute to overall network traffic. This analysis helps identify which message types consume the most bandwidth and reveals communication patterns within the Filecoin network. Use the direction filter to focus on inbound or outbound traffic specifically.
