Nortel Switch Stats Incorrect

Post by scruboy01 »

I am attempting to graph the in/out traffic and many different Baystack and BPS switches. The graphs appears to create ok, however, the data is incorrect. Using MRTG, I am able to get the correct stats. Cacti will show about 800k when it should be approximately 5M. I have tried both bytes/sec and bits/sec. Both return the same data. Any suggestions?

I have the same problem.
Baystack 5510.
the graphs shows 8-10MB/s when I push about 90MB/s.
Have tried both MBit/s an Mbit/s, and different types of 'em (inc tot etc), but it doesnt help....

Try using SNMPv2. I think that is what evenutally worked for me.
