Idirect connectivity with Cacti.

How I add Idirect modems in cacti, my cacti is runing with centos. I am nt sure about the OID & community.

That's bad. To retrieve information via SNMP (recommended), this information is required. Without == nogo

Hi Hkarim,

Couple of things to guide you in the right direction.

1: Depending on your idirect package version - you will 90% not be able to get SNMP info from the modem itself. iDirect has set it up so that all that goes to the NMS.

You can pull that info from the NMS but you will need access to it - usually via VPN.

Once you get access you will need to read this thread

There is some templates and Thuo made a great data source template for all OID's.

Good Luck.
