Graphs not showing up.

I've got a weird problem with a RB433AH.

It's not showing any graphs.

When I go to the /graphs URL, all I see is this:

Traffic and system resource graphing

/tool graphing print:
store-every: 5min

/tool graphing interface print:

INTERFACE ALLOW-ADDRESS STORE-ON-DISK

0 all 192.168.75.0/24 yes
1 ether1 192.168.75.0/24 yes
2 ether2 192.168.75.0/24 yes
3 ether3 192.168.75.0/24 yes
4 wlan1 192.168.75.0/24 yes
5 wlan2 192.168.75.0/24 yes
6 all 41.208.25.86/32 yes

I am accessing the router from 192.168.75.10 so should be able to see the graphs.

I am running transparent proxy on the router.

Does anyone have any thoughts as to what the problem could be?

If you are using
/tool graphing print
in the CLI, I expect you will not see any graphs. Text only. I believe that will be up to the Winbox interface to display.

I’m not using the CLI, I’m entering http://routerFQDN/graphs

That link is dead from here. I presume it is a localnet address. I will also presume that is the html interface, not the Winbox interface. Last time I checked, it doesn’t have all the fancy stuff (graphics) Winbox has.

OK, let’s try this from a different angle.

routerFQDN is an acronym for router fully qualified domain name.

The router in question has one public IP address that’s linked to a DNS A record.
It also has several private IP addresses,

So, whether I type in http://publicipaddress/graphs/ or http://192.168.75.254/graphs/ or any of the other IP addresses into my WEB BROWSER, I still get the same WEB PAGE that is being presented to me:
Traffic and system resource graphing

And nothing else.

Compare that with this WEB PAGE:

http://www.dennegeur.co.za/graphs/

where there are details of traffic on the four interfaces.

OK, I’ve done some searching on the internetwebthing and found another graph that does the same as mine:

http://www.omnicon.co.za/graphs/

My bad. The graphs should show up in the html display. I get the gif images on mine. I don’t get anything on the last link except the heading. What browser are you using?

What happens if you login, select “Advanced”, and then select the graph link next to the interface?

EDIT: That router probably has us blocked.
/tool graphing interface print
Check the ‘all’ allow-address, and insure your ip/netmask is there (or 0.0.0.0/0). If it isn’t, you won’t see anything but the title. I tried it.

Chances are if you use the fqdn, the 192.168 allow-address will not work. It would need to be the public ip. Is that the last allow-address? But otherwise, I don’t see a challenge. Maybe someone else will.

/tool graphing interface print

Flags: X - disabled

INTERFACE ALLOW-ADDRESS STORE-ON-DISK

0 all 0.0.0.0/0 yes

I can now see the graphs, but so can anyone else who wants to go snooping.

So, how do I restrict access to the graphs?

If you use this:
/tool graphics interface
set 0 allow-address=192.168.75.0/24

Then use
http://192.168.75.1
on your browser to access the graphics. That is presuming the localnet ip on the MT box is 192.168.75.1/24. If not change to the correct 192.168.75.x ip. I use x.x.x.1 for the gateway on my nets.

If you use your fqdn, you would need to add another entry with the ip of your public interface as the allow-address. I presume that is what your localnet is being masqueraded as on non-local requests.

author: ain’t you falling through that transparent proxy on the board ?
try adding 127.0.0.1 or the IP of proxy to allowed sources.

also, try to create rule that keeps http requests to the router itself not falling into transparent proxy.

I had same issue, but I found it, the graph it self bring nothing inside the page to be shown, you have to create it.
Under tools → Graphing, you can add the graph you wish to see, then the page provide you with them
