Try adding a 0 to the end, and also put the . back at the front of the OID.<br>

Subject: [mrtg] graphing an OID<br>
<br>
I am not able to turn an snmpget command that works into a working<br>
graph. I'm sure there is a relatively simple answer/fix to what I am<br>
doing wrong. SNMPGET returns:<br>
<br>
[root@ns1 cfg]# snmpget -v 1 -c ##### 1.1.12.250<br>
.1.3.6.1.4.1.16174.1.1.3.3.1.3.0<br>
SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.16174.1.1.3.3.1.3.0 = STRING: &quot;80.5&quot;<br>
<br>
In my MRTG config I have:<br>
<br>
Target[OutsideTemp]:<br>
.1.3.6.1.4.1.16174.1.1.3.3.1.3.0&amp;.1.3.6.1.4.1.16174.1.1.3.3.1.3.0:#####@<br>
1.1.12.250<br>
<br>
I can also change the 1.3.0 to 1.4.0 to get an INTERGER but I'm not sure<br>
that matters with my issue. Any help?<br>
