i found that with net-snmp, the trick is to replace the regexp in lib/snmp.php

Code: Select all

define("REGEXP_SNMP_TRIM", "(hex|counter(32|64)|gauge|gauge(32|64)|float|ipaddress|string|integer):");

with this

Code: Select all

define("REGEXP_SNMP_TRIM", "(hex|counter(32|64)|gauge|gauge(32|64)|float|ipaddress|string|integer):|(up|down)\(|\)$");

This did the job for me too.

why does cacti prefer php-snmp over net-snmp ?

I'm using Windows and followed "maxxic"'s post on Page 4 without issue. Here's the summary of what I did:
1. Import Template from Local File cacti_data_query_snmp_interface_statistics_730.xml, cacti_data_template_interface_status_190.xml, cacti_graph_template_interface_status_679.xml

2. Make changes in file interface.xml
<ifOperStatus>
<name>Status</name>
<method>walk</method>
<source>VALUE/REGEXP:[a-zA-Z]{1,}\(([1-]{1})+\)$</source>
<direction>output</direction>
<oid>.1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.8</oid>
</ifOperStatus>

3. Make changes in /var/www/html/cacti/lib/snmp.php
define("REGEXP_SNMP_TRIM", "(hex|counter(32|64)|gauge|gauge(32|64)|float|ipaddress|string|integer):|(up|down)\(|\)$");

Everything is working and graphing correctly. I'm using weathermap and will be graphing status with that. My question is in ragards to the graphs. Is it possible to delete these graphs but still have the data collected? On a 48 part switch it's kind of annoying to have to scroll past 48 up/down graphs to get to the bandwidth graphs (if needed).

Looks like deleting the graphs but leaving the data sources intact was all it took.

Wish I had thought of that sooner

Also, if you *only* want to use the status with weathermap, and don't care about graphs, you can get Weathermap to just poll the interfaces itself, and skip needing to patch Cacti... there's an SNMP datasource in Weathermap.

I can't find the "Interface - Status" graph template on my graph template drop down box, after I imported the 3 templates.
Can somebody help me?
I'm using, spine and cacti 0.8.7e
I need this template to monitor cisco 2950 switch.
If anybody have the other 2950 template to monitor temperature,voltage,and fan, please,let me know.

I really really need this template

thanks.

Same Problem for me also with same Cacti Version..Pl help....

[sukanta]

If Not changing following line from input to output as suggested, able to see the status in Graph creation page:

<direction>input</direction>

Pl check why we need to change it to output....

[lex]

Pl check why we need to change it to output....

Because if you don't, you won't be able to use the values. That's why it's called an output value .

[sukanta]

But it is working perfectly with internal...

[lex]

But it is working perfectly with internal...

That is probably because the appropriate values were already assigned to the graph templates when they were still set to output. Re-saving the queries will probably break things when the assigned values are set to input.

If you still don't believe me then open the query, click the graph template and you'll see that there are no output values available to assign to the graph template. (until you change it back to output ofcourse)

EDIT: check the attached screenshots

[sukanta]

You are right Lex.......
But If we Change it to output the link status is not visible in Data Query [SNMP - Interface Statistics] Output which is problem.....
Any Slution on that..

Also If I make as input getting following as per screenshot but is it working.......

Upgraded cacti to 0.87g and had to do this again.

Hello,

This exactly the plugin that I need, but it seems I can't make it work. I have this error:

RRDTool Says:

Can anyone help me?
