Yes, local is the local machine ONLY. Use net-snmp host template instead

hello

ok now i use ucd/net snmp host and these graph :

1) ucd/net - CPU Usage Not Being Graphed
2) ucd/net - Load Average Not Being Graphed
3) ucd/net - Memory Usage Not Being Graphed

1) SNMP - Interface Statistics (Verbose Query) Uptime Goes Backwards Success [0 Items, 0 Rows] Reload Data Query Delete Data Query Association
2) ucd/net - Get Monitored Partitions (Verbose Query) Uptime Goes Backwards Success [0 Items, 0 Rows]

but i have nothing, no data in graph (graph are blank)
so in debug mode:

Sure. Some of the information requires a specific snmp.conf setup on the target side. See e.g. net-snmp web pages and/or some information in the net-snmp setup pages of the Cacti documentation (1st link of my sig)
