Cisco Router MIB for Measurements Per Protocol

[brian_case]

Great tool. I will be using this for much of my network monitoring.



Does anyone know how to obtain per protocol SNMP data from Cisco router? An example of what I would like to do is here:

I know I will need the right MIB, but I don't know where to locate it. Also, I am not sure how to configure Cacti to use the new MIB.

Thanks

Maybe I should change the labelling on this graph

This graph is actually not a per-protocol graph, but an accumulation of each machine connected to that T1. Just a fancy looking STACKED'd traffic graph mainly.

I do know however that Cisco's netflow can be used to accomplish exactly what you are talking about. I would also be interested in setting up such a thing as well. Does anyone else out there have experience configuring netflow on Cisco routers?

I have been using NetFlow with rrdtool and flowscan software written by Dave Plonka at UW Madison.

I was just about to start a project to integrate NetFlow with Cacti either seperatly or through Cacti. I figured that it was going to need to be seperate because of all the different interworkings of netflow. Flowscan is the best option at this point.

In general netflow is rather complicated to setup, and you are going to have to have a somewhat beefy router.
