I am looking for a way to get my interface rates to show up in the apperance. By default, after I enabled SNMP and got it working remotely I found that CPU and Disk are shown in my Network Map. I am looking to get my Interface rates to show up.
What function would I need to add to accomplish this? When I check settings on the device I can see the Interface rates for TX and RX when I select the SNMP tab.
I just can’t seem to figure out what needs to be added to the Apperance to get the rates to show up.
To clarify I am not looking to monitor the rate between two devices, I am just trying to monitor the interface rate between all devices using a particular interface on the RB751U-2HnD.
Any hints?
You want the total throughput of your RB? You could add all the interface rates together and the “rate32” them to get the actual value.
Basically you have to pick all the OIDs that contain the packet counters of the interfaces you would like to monitor and add them all together then divide by rate to get the utilization.
There is a thread that shows how to make a notification when an interface was high utilization by gsandul. Find that and start there, if you get stuck just ask someone can help. Also the OIDs and the Rate command are used in this thread so you will see how to generate a function that you can place on a device label.
OTOH if you just want to monitor utilization on one interface and want something quick make a static object like a cloud, add a link between the RB and cloud, select SNMP and pick the interface you want to monitor.
