How do you use this OID? By a script? By a "simple SNMP request" or by using a Data Query?

I created the graph by using this part of manual
http://www.cacti.net/downloads/docs/htm ... p_oid.html
if you still need me to post screenshots, let me know and I'll post them

Please create a copy of that Data Template and change the OID to mimic that one you are interested in

Oops, the field is empty: it is the OID field

i created a couple of different graphs which use different OIDs
but all of them were created from this template
so the OID field is porbably supposed to be empty

Yes, yes.
See the "Data Sources", find your host and Data Source by filtering. Then edit the data source in question and change the OID field.
