[mrtg] Grpahing RMON variables

[Christopher Poetzel]

I am grying to graph some RMON variables with mrtg-2.9.16, redhat 7.1,
rrdtool/14all.cgi and have having difficulties.  Specifically i want,

etherStatsCRCAlignErrors
etherStatsUndersizePkts
etherStatsCollisions
etherStatsBroadcastPkts
etherStatsMulticastPkts
If i do a
>snmpwalk x.x.x.x  xxxxyyy .1.3.6.1.2.1.16.1.1.1.7    i get

16.1.1.1.7.32 = 0
16.1.1.1.7.48 = 0
16.1.1.1.7.160 = 0
16.1.1.1.7.176 = 0
16.1.1.1.7.192 = 0
16.1.1.1.7.208 = 0
16.1.1.1.7.224 = 0    ...etc.

These .32, .48 etc are the indexing that RMON uses.  if you do a
>snmpwalk x.x.x.x xxxxyyy .1.3.6.1.2.1.16.1.1.1.2

16.1.1.1.2.32 = OID: interfaces.ifTable.ifEntry.ifIndex.3
16.1.1.1.2.48 = OID: interfaces.ifTable.ifEntry.ifIndex.4
16.1.1.1.2.160 = OID: interfaces.ifTable.ifEntry.ifIndex.11
16.1.1.1.2.176 = OID: interfaces.ifTable.ifEntry.ifIndex.12

you can see how this ties into the ifIndexing which MRTG uses.
Below is the releavent cfg portion and the error output.  Is there someway
to get mrtg to use the correct RMON instance variable or any other way to
get this to work.  Looking at comp.dcomp.net-management i see that people
are doing this but still couldn't find out how.  I suppose i could create
a script to map the ifindex to the RMON instance variable.  Has anyone
done this or got this working?

Thanks in advance,

 Here is the
relavant config section, usring ifdescr=name on a catalyst 6509 switch;
