Creating an OID

Post by Dr_Madd »

I have spent two days on trying to get Cacti to pull in bits in/out of some wireless equipment we use and have not been able to find the right setup. I can guarentee that I am missing something simple but its just not jumping up in front of me.

I know if I do a SNMP get in term I can get what I need. This is the data I use for that 1.3.6.1.4.1.15319.3.2.1.12.0&1.3.6.1.4.1.15319.3.2.1.13.0
But, I cant find how to make Cacti use this.

What I HAVE been able to do so far. I have created new devices and Cacti does see the devices and does show me if they are up or down along with the other info provided on the devices page. So, my call for help is, can someone tell me where I need to put the info above, if thats even what I need, to make Cacti pull in my bits in/out. I do also have an MIB file but have even less of a clue where that info can be used : )

Sorry, I am certainly a newbie this. I will keep reading thru the docs to see if a brick falls on my head, but would love some assistance.

1) have you tried using the built in template for SNMP - Interface Statistics ?
2) If the interface stats data query does not work, then you have two options:
a) manually poll the two OIDs with the SNMP - Generic OID Template (create another template and name is SNMP - Generic OID Template 2, for example).
b) Make a copy of ./resource/snmp_queries/interface.xml and modify it so it polls your wireless devices OID.
