I don't seem to be understanding what defines the values on the left side vertical column. For example my CPU graph has a tag labeled "percent" but the numbers then go 0.0,1.0,2.0,3.0,4.0 so what up to 4.0%? This is slightly confusing...

EDIT: I installed the updated memory graph and it still doesn't graph memory use :( This update also appears to have broken my connections graph as it no longer graphs data :(

EDIT: Ok so after recreating all the graphs memory now appears to be reporting correctly. The only issue I am still having is the confusing vertical values on the left side of the CPU graph. Is there any way to tell rrd or cacti how I want to define that column. I would love for my CPU graph to go from 1-100% instead of from 0.0-4.0

Might this script also work on a cisco asa firewall?

once I import the template, copy the perl script to the correct directory, I then need to edit the data input methods to enter the user name and password. Correct?

So, I went to Data input methods - "Cisco VPN - Active VPN users"
Here, I see router, username, password, and enpassword.

Once I click username, should I enter the user name in the "Regular Expression Match" field or "Special Type Code" field?

Also, should this work on a asa firewall?

Are you guys getting the bandwidth and error statistics off your PIX interfaces? Everything is working but that for me... the most important one! Im trying to setup triggered alerts based on errors off a PIX interface.

Yeah, I'm using the PIX Firewall template from here and I'm getting both bandwidth and error stats off my 515's and 506's. I'm still running v6.3.3. of the PIX OS though.

That's odd, because my errors and discarded packets work. I needed to use SNMP v1 though to monitor the PIX. SNMP v2 just didn't work. :(

Update of template

Post by SaeZ »

Hi,
I updated your template with a fix of CPU graph size and the memory graph (I/O Memory = Free Memory and Used Proc = Used Memory).

It was tested on 0.8.7a.

status problem

Post by cyd777 »

I'm newbee in cacti.
I installed in debian lenny from package.
I used the template what I found here.
I added a new device with pix template, TCP PING and SNMP Downed Device Detection and I got TCP PING success and every snmp information what set up in pix.

My problem is in device list my pix status is Unknown and the cacti didn't do any graph.

My system is Debian lenny, my pix System is Cisco PIX Firewall Version 6.3(5).
Cacti Version 0.8.7b

Has anyone any idea what make I wrong?

Thans,
cyd

Hi cyd777

did you try a snmpget (or snmpgetnext) at your server command line ?
did you try with snmp version 1 instead of 2 ?

Hi anerot!

I think snmp is working, because in command line i get every information from pix in my linux box and when I choose the device in device list I can see every information from pix, but the status is unknown.

Hi Cyd,

mmm... it seems that your server has no other device currently monitored. Maybe you have to check your global configuration, specially the polling config.
Are you using ping or snmp for default check for your availability in your global settings ?

I'm having the same problem as CYD. I think I might have some sort of SNMP problem because under the device under "SNMP Information" it says in red "SNMP error". not really the most descriptive error in the world. I've tried SNMP version 1 and 2. What else should I check out? I'm pretty new to the Cacti world and am trying my best to not just bore you guys with my questions.

Thanks,
Shane
