The interface being pinged is actually the failover address walking the OID to 
that address actually shows an incrementing counter. I would imagine I should 
see something even if it's only in the hundres per 5 minutes. Is there such a 
thing as setting the maxbytes too high? Here's the snmpwalk of this router 
showing the gradual increments. Each instance is about 5 seconds apart:

snmpwalk router2 Commstring .1.3.6.1.2.1.5.8.0
icmp.icmpInEchos.0 = Counter32: 460432266
snmpwalk router2 Commstring .1.3.6.1.2.1.5.8.0
icmp.icmpInEchos.0 = Counter32: 460432270
snmpwalk router2 Commstring .1.3.6.1.2.1.5.8.0
icmp.icmpInEchos.0 = Counter32: 460432275
snmpwalk router2 Commstring .1.3.6.1.2.1.5.8.0
icmp.icmpInEchos.0 = Counter32: 460432278
snmpwalk router2 Commstring .1.3.6.1.2.1.5.8.0
icmp.icmpInEchos.0 = Counter32: 460432281
snmpwalk router2 Commstring .1.3.6.1.2.1.5.8.0
icmp.icmpInEchos.0 = Counter32: 460432281 

Here's the config being used (I've tried different MaxBytes):

Target[router2_icmp]:1.3.6.1.2.1.5.1.0&1.3.6.1.2.1.5.8.0:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:

I would think that this would be normal.  If someone pings the interface
address it would only go the one router.  If they ping the standby
address is would still only go to one router, the active router.  I do
not think that there is a specific maxbytes for pings.  I picked
100,000,000 assuming that it would never go that high.

I actually got it to work by removing the "gauge" option and now I'm
seeing about 6k pings per 5 minutes and that seems legit. However, I
have encountered something interesting. The second router, which is an
HSRP peer to this one and pretty much with an identical config, is not
giving any data on the graphs. Neither the graphic or the text is
showing data.

I walked the oid and it's functional but the only difference is the
quantity of pings to this router. This one is getting hit about 45 times
a minute as opposed to the thousands per minute on the 1st router. 

I tried searching through the docs and search engines for how to
determine the maxbytes but can't figure it out.

Can anyone assist?

Thanks!
