Zyel 2812 traffic graphs in cacti

[pathia]

I am running a working Cacti installation for years. But now I want to graph my Zyxel P-2812HNU-F1 in cacti but can't get it to work.
If I try to reload the SNMP - interface statistics I get:
Success [0 Items, 0 Rows] and on top of the page I get an snmp error.

Looking with tcpdump I get:
23:07:18.687191 IP cactiip.57353 > modemip.snmp: C=mystring GetBulk(29) N=0 M=20 .1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.1
23:07:21.889236 IP modemip.snmp > cactiip.57353: C=mystring GetResponse(450) .1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.8.1.0=[|snmp]

For reference, if I snmpwalk -v1 -cmystring ipaddress .
I get :
IF-MIB::ifOperStatus.1.0 = INTEGER: down(2)
IF-MIB::ifOperStatus.2.0 = INTEGER: up(1)

End of MIB

Is there a way in which I can add the specific interfaces in cacti and add traffic graphs in the usual way? Or perhaps any other solution I didn't think of ?

Please set MAX OIDs to 1 to disable bulkwalk for that device

Thanks for the tip, but I'm afraid it didn't solve the issue for me.
I have run the data query in debug mode and I got this:

Code: Select all

+ Running data query [1].
+ Found type = '3' [snmp query].
+ Found data query XML file at '/var/www/cacti/resource/snmp_queries/interface.xml'
+ XML file parsed ok.
+ Executing SNMP walk for list of indexes @ '.1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.1'
+ No SNMP data returned
+ Found data query XML file at '/var/www/cacti/resource/snmp_queries/interface.xml'
+ Found data query XML file at '/var/www/cacti/resource/snmp_queries/interface.xml'

I have to admit that if I manually do a snmpwalk for that oid, it won't return any data.

snmpwalk -v2c -ccommunity ipaddress .1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.1

Well, that's the reason, then. honestly, I did not yet face a system that does not provide data for ifIndex but does provide the rest. I was under the assumption, that ifIndex is mandatory.
So I suppose you have to create a copy of the "Traffic" Data Query and provide your own XML file that only asks for those parameters that your device supports.
But prior to that, please verify that this is not an issue with configuration of the target system.

Hi, the device is a Zyxel ethernet/vdsl router. I can only enable the snmp agent and configure a get and set community string
Can you please elaborate on how to create this copy and provide my own xml file ?
(I was thinking about adding manually adding some rows in the cacti database)

The way to go is to use the SNMP Data Query walkthrough at 1st link of my sig.
You will have to create a
- Data Query
- Data Template
- Graph Template
- XML file for Data Query
Most of this new stuff will look very much like the current "Traffic" Data Query. But I recommend the sequence of steps mentioned in that very walkthrough.. I suppose this will be easier then copying and changing things (at least such a method has not yet been explained in detail)
