SNMP Interface Problem

[carboxyl]

Not sure what all I can exactly tell you but here it goes:

I have around 75 IPs on this machine.

They are all an alias to each ethernet device.

So I have (in rc.conf) something like: (Not exact, I'm tired)

r10_alias1=x.x.x.141
...
r10_alias75=x.x.x.204

Now, when I go to add graphs, it shows the x.x.x.204 IP address. However it doesn't show the others. When I do a verbose query for SNMP via Cacti, it shows them all. I am assuming it's showing the last IP in the adapter, however I could be wrong. Any ideas on how to go about getting ALL of the IP's to be able to graph traffic between?

Thanks!

Are you talking about alias IP addresses? Then please read from man ifconfig

NOTES
Since kernel release 2.2 there are no explicit interface statistics for alias interfaces anymore. The statistics
printed for the original address are shared with all alias addresses on the same device. If you want per-address
statistics you should add explicit accounting rules for the address using the ipchains(8) command.

Does this help?

lvm,

Good to know!! Also, cacti currently overwrites the IP's rather than stacking them. I had at one time considered using distinct line breaks and showing all the IP's, but some browsers do not support line breaks within <td> objects. Therefore, I did not implement this feature. Therefore, the last IP wins.
