Problems Polling Two OID's - NewB Question

[MikeP]

I have been working with Cacti for a little over a week now. We were currently using MRTG.

I have a Nortel ATM Switch, and the standard Interface Stats is not showing any data. The MRTG cfg file I was using to poll them used two OID's (IN and OUT Data) as opposed to the interface number. If I use the Generic OID template I can get the data. But I want to be able to put the IN and OUT on one graph like the standard Interface Stats graphs.

I can attach the MRTG cfg file if needed.

Can anyone point me in the right direction.

Thanks in advance,

Mike

Create your own snmp dataquery template. Use the "interface.xml" file in the <cactidirctory>/resource/snmp_queries to get you started.

I tired to create a dataquery template, but I am not sure I made it correctly. I dont see any data when I do the query.

Is there any docs anywere that explain creating a dataquery correctly. Babysteps.

Please see http://www.cacti.net/downloads/docs/htm ... y_xml.html. It's somewhat outdated, but should be enough as a starting point.
