Now I am confused. If that is the case, why does the other switch work
with this config?

Target[172.20.100.200_2]: 2:foo at 172.20.100.200:
SetEnv[172.20.100.200_2]: MRTG_INT_IP="" MRTG_INT_DESCR=""
MaxBytes[172.20.100.200_2]: 12500000
Title[172.20.100.200_2]: Traffic Analysis for (SW4 port 2) --
PageTop[172.20.100.200_2]: <H1>Traffic Analysis for (SW4 port 2) --
</H1>
 <TABLE>
   <TR><TD>System:</TD>     <TD> in </TD></TR>
   <TR><TD>Maintainer:</TD> <TD></TD></TR>
   <TR><TD>Description:</TD><TD>  </TD></TR>
   <TR><TD>ifType:</TD>     <TD>ethernetCsmacd (6)</TD></TR>

   <TR><TD>Max Speed:</TD>  <TD>100.0 Mbits/s</TD></TR>
 </TABLE>

The bit you are talking about in front of the comm string increments
with the ports on the switch, so that also confuses me, so port 1 it
would be 1:foo, 2:foo, 3:foo, etc....

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.
