[mrtg] Re: mrtg frustrations

[Ruttenberg, Tanya]

MRTG needs 2 OIDs in the target line.  You have this

Target[172.20.100.202_1]: 1:foo at 172.20.100.202:

You need something like this

Target[172.20.100.202_1]: 1&1:foo at 172.20.100.202:

I'm not 100% sure of the syntax since I always explicitly list whatever OIDs
I am trying to get.  I would do it like this:

Target[172.20.100.202_1]: ifInOctets.1&ifOutOctets.1:foo at 172.20.100.202:::::

Not sure of the mrtg shorthand.

But for sure one of your issues is that you need to collect two metrics.

I am trying to setup another Dell switch for SNMP polling. I have one switch
working but am running into problems with another similar switch.
 

I ran debug and I see it running through the config lines:

But I don't see any snpo lines, such as the ones below:

--snpo: simple If: .100

--snpo: simple If: .100

--snpo: SNMPGet from foo at 172.20.100.200: --
ifInOctets.100,ifOutOctets.100,sysUptime,sysName

--snpo: SNMPfound -- 'undef', 'undef', '32 days, 21:17:52', 'undef'

 

I am trying to get this to work via Big Brother and I wonder if this is my
overall problem.
