Cacti

I tried each method and came to a similar conclussion... something is wrong with my router. Anytime an SNMP request is sent, the CPU usage is pegged and doing anything else on the router becomes very difficult. I couldn't successfully complete an SNMP walk on the router, so I could not get interface...

Hmmm... The interfaces I am interested in will all have a name something like Se0/0:0... so they should all contain the name "Se" followed by a number a slash, then a number colon number... that could be made into a regular expression. I'm not sure how to impliment anywhere to use it thoug...

The initial setup of the table will require a lot of snmp traffic to that host, indeed. As soon as you have the Interface Table set up (you see if when "Create Graphs for this Host" was selected), you may select only the SE interface you're interested in. This is the only one that will be...

I am having a problem setting up querying for SNMP Interface Statistics on a Cisco router. The issue appears to be that there are a very large number of ATM interfaces on the device and there is not a lot of available bandwidth on the T1 connections going to the device. I have been unable thus far t...

For the Cisco stuff, you need to make sure you have SNMP turned on. Then you have to match the same community string you used on the Cisco equipment in the device config on Cacti. To enable snmp in the Cisco routers, go to config t and enter: snmp-server community MyCommunityString RO snmp-server if...

Is there no other way??? Is there a way to only allow the search to return the first 100 interfaces??? Anything???

I am trying to add SNMP Interface statistics for a Cisco 7200 series router so that i can graph bandwidth utlilization on the T1's. When I try to add the SNMP Interface Statistics, Internet Explorer just says "Waiting for host.php..." and really kills the performance on that router. I'm no...

Thanks. I turned on debugging and saw lots of SNMP request timed out type errors. I had assumed from the monitoring tab that pings worked (since it said so on the monitoring tab) but found that when I tried to ping from the server itself, it did not work. I checked the network settings and found tha...

Cacti has been up and running and working fine for some time. Today I tried to add interface polling to a new router and the intial query started hammering that router to a point where our DSL users speeds dropped to sub-dialup speeds. I couldn't get the interface query to stop so I rebooted the Cac...

Ah... Is there a way to make it so that Cacti will show a host as up if they respond to either a ping or an SNMP request? From what I you are saying, it appears right now they will have to respond to BOTH for them to show as up and a number of my servers aren't going to respond to pings, but I have ...

This is just a general question about how the graphing works with Cacti... By default, it polls SNMP data every five minutes, right? Is that data that it returns the current state of the interface at that moment or is it an average of that interface over a five minute period or some other third thin...

My Pix are down too, but I think that's because I don't have SNMP turned on with them and because they won't return pings. SNMP is definately turned on with the routers and it I ping them too... and they graphs for them are being created... why do they keep showing up as being down, Cacti doesn't se...

I've got two routers that are showing up under the Monitor tab that appear as being down, but when I click on them, it shows SNMP information and the graphs for these routers are being updated. I am able to get a response from these routers when I ping them as well (under the downed host detection s...

We have well over 1,000 IMA interfaces that may be used for DSL customers (only 600 are used) that I've setup Cacti to graph. I was wondering two things.... First, is there a way to sort the graphs so the interfaces using the most bandwidth appear at the top of the listing? And second, is there a wa...

OKAY, I figured it out... I realized I couldn't ping anything outside of my immediate network and found I was missing the default route in my network config. Seems to be working right now.
