Cacti Reports

[ccollege]

Hi newbie here,

Can I ask for some help, I have just setup Cacti and its all working. However I have a couple of questions to ask.

What I am trying to do is to measure the bandwith usage on the switches. over a period of time However I'm not to sure which reports to use.

the switches i will be messuring have gig feeds so I no I need to use eith]

in/out bits (64bit Counters)

however I have noticed there are other reports for example

in/out Total bandwith

I know i cant use that as it does not measure 1 gig feeds, however can some kind soul explain to me what each report does. and can you get

in/out bits (64bit Counters) Total bandwith.

Sorry to ask this questions

TIA

Glyn

When using GB links, you'll have to use 64 bit templates
