Re: Many weathermaps
Twenty weathermap? So big your network is. I got 22 switches and routers in total, and I put them in one weathermap. if you want to build 20 weathermap, just enable snmp in your switches, and add your need devices one by one.

Re: Many weathermaps
I've do it.. 23 maps and more than 500 nodes on them
i've found some shortcuts
the first is to do a first map.
thinks about modify "Default Link Width" and "Default Link Bandwidth" in "map proprieties" before create links...
duplicate the map with an other name and to modify this last
modify in the folder can be faster than modify in the cacti interface.
go in the cacti folders and modify the map from here :
-in the file .conf of the map, you can add defaults settings (instead of modify one by one)
you can :
in the links default settings, add
how to modify automatly comment position
COMMENTPOS 60 30
put an automatly comment
INCOMMENT 100Mbps
modify the default bandwidth
BANDWIDTH 100M
Or you can use the function "replace all", very usefull when you have to create many nodes or many links with the same caracteristics :
1 create all the nodes on the interface cacti (without modify any settings)
2 go to the folder of the map (.conf)
you can read
NODE node05274
LABEL Node
POSITION 775 40
3 open replace all
4 replace "LABEL Node" by "LABEL NameYouChooseForNodes"
and you have change all the names who appears in a few minutes
and.. continue !

Re: Many weathermaps
but to add graphs or data sources on the links, I found no shortcut.
