Cacti

My hosts have a lot. I'm grabbing Errors per interface, bit/s for all interfaces, CPU and memory for 83 routers. Some have 24 ports some have 100+ depending on their function. I'm also graphing some load balancers. I'm just collection on connections per second but there are alot of servers/IPs assoc...

Published version 0.63. See first post Reinhard Great stuff. Your initial graph offerings aren't what I am looking for but it did allow me to move things around, play with the data, and create this sort of graph for four interfaces (two interfaces on two different routers): http://justanotherdumb.c...

Ah. I just didn't understand where it was suppose to show up. I'm now upgraded to 0.63. I can't say that it worked great out of the box, but I changed some of it around and it actually works exactly the way I want it to. Which is much, much better than anything I could ever do with just a generic gr...

I attempted to install the aggregate plugin. I copied the directory over into /usr/local/share/cacti/plugins and set its permissions to be the same as other stuff in /usr/local/share/cacti/ I added the mysql entries to the cacti database. (mysql cacti < aggregate.sql) I updated /usr/local/share/cact...

Of course, not long after posting that I found it... Console -> Data Queries -> SNMP - Interface Statistics -> In/Out Bits It has a list of Suggest Values for both the Data Template and the Graph Template. You can tinker with various formats or just cut it down to one to fit your preferred naming co...

I am testing out Cacti as a possible network graphing tool for my employer. I have a mix of network equipment between Cisco, Juniper and Foundry. I've set up two hosts, one Cisco and one Foundry, just to see how things would look. When I use the Graph Template "Interface - Traffic (bits/sec)&qu...

Figured it out.

Those HRULE and VRULE entries were garbage/invalid. Once I removed them, it displayed the graphs properly.

Excellent stuff.

It's actually:

Settings -> Visuals -> Data Queries -> Maximum Field Length

I boosted it to 75 and it had no effect on the size of query_ifName values being displayed.

There are two formats being shown:

|query_ifAlias| (|host_description| |query_ifName|)

and

|host_description| - Traffic - |query_ifName|

In both, the query_ifName instance is no more than 15 characters.

Problem: I have some ifNames that are pretty long and while the datasource are correct, I'm getting this in the graph titles: router - Traffic - FastEthernet2/1 router - Traffic - FastEthernet2/1 router - Traffic - FastEthernet2/1 router - Traffic - FastEthernet2/1 router - Traffic - FastEthernet2/1...
