Cisco 6500 switche template

ranchoman · Post by **ranchoman** » Fri Sep 17, 2004 5:53 am

This is host template for Cisco 6500 switches running IOS or CatOS

The template measures CPU, Memory, Temperature, Backplane load and Interfaces.

Let me know about it.

Cheers,

Is PortName supported. Not prepared to install without an engineering review.

Hi,

I've tried pulling stuff from a 6506, but the cpu stats don't seem to work:

Are you sure that's the OID for 5min_cpu ?

Kind regards,

Hi Renaatski,

I'm using the OID dedicated for Cisco routers.

If you are using a CatOS, you must maybe use the following OID for CPU:
.1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.109.1.1.1.1.5.9

Easy way to do it is download and install the following graph template.Edit the host template "Cisco - 6500" and add the graph template "Cisco Catalyst - CPU Usage".

Let me know about it because in the past I upgraded my 6500 from CatOS to IOS and I don't remind if I modified the OID or not.

Cheers,

That's the one for the CatOS!

Thanks

the oid for routers doesn't work on a catalyst switch, but if your've named a port "set port name x/x xxxxxx" then the Alias oid will return what it's named
ifAlias .1.3.6.1.2.1.31.1.1.1.18

disorganizer · Post by **disorganizer** » Fri Aug 12, 2005 8:35 am

the ifAlias is not working for catos, as catos (swear@cisco) does not support this. (it is supported in IOS for the desc config-command)

instead, the set xxx desc is represented via snmp the following way:
.1.3.6.1.4.1.9.5.1.4.1.1.4.<slot>.<port>
(which is the most annoying solution i ever saw in a switch).

so you would need to poll ifname (.1.3.6.1.2.1.31.1.1.1.1) for the slot/port of the ifindex, then insert slot and port in the above oid to retrieve the description of a catos port.

is this possible to implement in cacti?
as i am atm searching for a solution to represent catos portdescriptions in graphs automatically (and updating to ios is no solution for those devices).

Yes, been on my list of things to do for some time.

is that peak or current for the backplane? is there a oid for current?

Thanks!!!

Great template

hermatize · Post by **hermatize** » Tue Oct 10, 2006 11:17 am

Also do you have the mib that contains that oid?

If you look at MacTrack, I have some scripts to pull out the CatOS PortNames. However, to implement in Cacti does not work right now. I might provide a patch, but I no longer have access to CatOS switches to test it.

In life, change is inevitable...

I may be able to help with that. Feel free to drop me a line.

I really love this template -

however I can't figure out where to specify an interface

I go into datasources, selected data template interface - traffic

name: |host_description| - Traffic Port 2/7

then I'm assuming index value box is where I enter numbers such as 2/7? under the custom data

I'm not receiving stats for any of the above. I only receive SNMP interface statistics. I'm new to Cacti so I'm probably missing something. I only have my community string set for SNMP - Interface Statistics. Do I need to add more data queries?
