Hi,

Are you using the 64bit graph from the Interface Data Query.

In the screen where you can select the interfaces that you want to graph you have a selection field. It is located under the query results at the right.

One of these options is "In/Out Bits (64 bit)" or something. For Gigabit interfaces you need to graph this option. The counter of the normal one does not support gigabit ethernet interfaces and generates faulty graphs.

You may also need snmp v2 to collect the 64bit OIDs.
