Displaying the Alias (IF-MIB) for cisco interface in graphs?

greginmadison · Post by **greginmadison** » Wed Apr 30, 2008 7:29 am

I am looking to place the |host_description| - Traffic - |query_ifName| and the description onto the Cisco interfac traffic(bits/sec) graph. But I cannot find if there is a variable that I can use for this. Is there a way to put this info on the title of the graphs?

Ok, so I found that I can add |query_ifAlias| to the graph title. Is there anyway to do this after the fact that I have 10,000 graphs to modify. I can apply this to the graph template, but this does not effect all the current graphs?

Ok, so I added the |query_ifAlias| to the Graph Template for Interface-Traffic(bit/sec), AND I have modified Settings->Visual->Maximum Title Length to 120, AND change Maximum Field Length to 40, but my query_ifAlias values are being truncated at 20 characters?

With Max title length set to 100, and maximum field length set to 40 it works now.

Hi!
I follow this instructions and the description (onto the Cisco interfac traffic graph) is worked fine!
My question now is how to eliminate the descrption "- |query_ifAlias|" (literal) at the end of interface's graph which no alias set.
Thanks!

I had the same question, when no alias set how to not show the |query_Alias| variable?

Anybody know?
