Microsoft.SystemCenter.VirtualMachineManager.2016.HyperVMeteringUsageInbound (Rule)

This rule collects the number of KBytes received by every virtual NIC on both IPv4 and IPv6.

Knowledge Base article:

Summary

This rule collects the number of KBytes received at address 0.0.0.0/0 or 0::0/0 by every virtual network adapter on the target Hyper-V host over the collection interval. This collection is done by default every 1 hour and the value represents the total inbound traffic on the network adapter. Minimum granularity of data is 1024KBytes and recommended minimum collection interval is 1hour. For any information/errors logs generated by this rule, please check Operations Manager event log on the Hyper-V host for 1100-1102 events.
