Why should the network utilization rising above 50% be used to identify bottlenecks?

While high utilization might affect VM delivery, the 50% rule is a general network health indicator for saturation, not specific to Provisioning Services bandwidth.

A network segment with utilization consistently above 50% suggests that the available bandwidth is heavily used. This makes it a strong indicator that the segment is saturated or becoming a bottleneck, leading to potential performance issues.

High network utilization indicates heavy traffic, not necessarily a failed network switch, which would likely result in connectivity loss rather than just high utilization.

High network utilization points to traffic volume, not specifically an incorrectly configured router, although a misconfigured router could contribute to a bottleneck.
