[mrtg] Re: FW: MRTG not graphing

[Rich Adamson]

Yes, but I don't know if it is an official Cisco bug, or a change in Cisco's
engineering methods. I tend to believe it's a design change associated with
snmp as several other strange snmp issues have popped up in the last 12 months.
If you follow Cisco's bug track, it appears they began an effort to rewrite
the snmp code a while back.

The problem is the snmp interface number can change from a number to another
under certain circumstances (including an IOS change, adding or removing a
card from the box, etc). I don't know exactly which IOS version these issues
first began to appear, but would suspect v12.0 code.

Other snmp issues that have appeared including the snmp statistics being reset
to zero when someone logs into the router and executes a "clear counters".
That will typically show up as a hugh unrealistic spike on mrtg charts.
