[mrtg] cfgmaker & Foundry routers

[Steve Shipway]

You should probably use a cfgmaker template that will use the alias if available, else the description, and so on - as some of your aliases are blank you'll need alternatives.  I've submitted a patch for cfgmaker to Tobi that allows you to specify multiple things in the -ifdesc and -ifref in order of preference, which should help, but until this goes live you'll need to do it with a cfgmaker template.  Take a look at some of the ones in the library at http://www.steveshipway.org/forum/viewforum.php?f=34

Brian,

Below is the ifAlias section of the MIB:

[root at bandit mrtg]# snmpwalk -c ubaVcj8PYF -v 2c fsigt-001-eqla3.stk ifAlias
IF-MIB::ifAlias.65 = STRING:
IF-MIB::ifAlias.66 = STRING:
IF-MIB::ifAlias.193 = STRING: fstgt-002-eqla3-ethe4/1
IF-MIB::ifAlias.194 = STRING: fstgt-002-eqla3-ethe4/2

I have tried '--ifdesc alias' and I get the same output.  Any thoughts?

what does snmpwalk on the if mib look like?
