I think the best idea is use HC ones by default and fall back to ifTable ifyou use v1? Would that be a good compromise?

Older versions of JFFNMS had a little trick where it used standard ifTable 32 bit counters for snmp v1 and ifXTable 64 bit counters for v2c and v3. The problem was that if your device supported later SNMP versions but not ifXTable you were stuck polling a non-existent set of counters. Later versions of JFFNMS now have 4 explicit poller groups: Cisco Cisco HC Interfaces Interfaces HC The HC varieties use the 64 bit counters and the difference between the cisco and interface groups is that the Cisco ones do a proxy ping if you have a snmp read/write community. So, which should be the default? My preference is to use Interfaces HC because you should be using v2c at least if not v3 but you have the problem that v1 won't work. The Cisco varieties are only need for specific circumstances. Perhaps the HC ones should be the default and fall back to ifTable if you use v1? Would that be a good compromise? - Craig -- Craig Small VK2XLZ http://enc.com.au/ csmall at : enc.com.au Debian GNU/Linux http://www.debian.org/ csmall at : debian.org GPG fingerprint: 5D2F B320 B825 D939 04D2 0519 3938 F96B DF50 FEA5 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ For Developers, A Lot Can Happen In A Second.
