How to make graphs of Cisco Equipements with the frontend ca

Post by ebola »

Hi everybody,

First of all if my english is not perfect it's normal im french... :)

I am doing an internship in a big enterprise in france. The network is very big (180 Cisco equipement from the catalyst 1900 to the 6500...). I want to establish traffics graph for all the interfaces. A lots of work i know...

I began with a little switch (catalyst 1900). The snmp service is open. If anyone has an idea of how making traffics graph for the twelve 10MB interfaces and for the two fast ethernet, it would be very cool.

Thanks a lot

I assume you have tried graphing the host using the Cisco router template.

If that failed Try graphing the switch using its IP and the Generic SNMP enabled host, as that seems to work pretty well for most things.

Thanks

Thanks a lot Carl for your answer,

I just resolved my problem !! It was a kernel problem. In fact, the "libsensor3" package was not well configured on my debian server because i didn't apply "kernel-patch-2.4-i2c" and "kernel-patch-2.4-lm-sensors" and i didn't install "lm-sensors" package too...

That's the reason why i didn't get any snmp informations from the ciscos interfaces.

For those who will have the same problem, you have to do (in root) :
#apt-get install kernel-patch-2.4-i2c kernel-patch-2.4-lm-sensors lm-sensors
#modprobe i2c-proc
#dpkg-reconfigure libsensors3
Of course, those patches are available for a 2.4.x kernel! if it is a 2.6 use kernel-patch-2.6-i2c and kernel-patch-2.6-lm-sensors (im not sure, u have to try...)
