  • SNMP Bandwidth usage

    Posted by bluelinq on febrero 8, 2008 at 01:37

    According to this site, www . cisco . com/warp/public/477/SNMP/calculate_bandwidth_snmp.html

    you can use (ifInOctets x 8 X 100/) ((number of seconds on Delta) x ifSpeed) to calculate the bandwidth usage of an interface with SNMP. My question is how can this be done using an agent in Pandora or is there an easier way to do this?

    Regards,

    Paul

    Pandora FMS implements this with generic_data_inc type. Create a network module with generic_data_inc type and point to a OID like IF-MIB::ifInOctets.1

    You also have several examples in documentation.

    Are you sure is generic_data_inc? When I do that then OID is not enabled.

    Actually, there must be a bug since the only way to enter the value for an OID is to create a new modules and enter the value at the very begining. If you select the module type first then no matter what selection you use the OID is not enabled.

    Sorry, correct module is remote_snmp_inc 🙂
