It is in bytes. It's the number of bytes that have passed through the interface since it started counting or since the counters wrapped.
So the number itself is probably meaningless. It's the change in value in a known interval that makes it interesting. Therefore, store it as a counter value. Rrdtool will compute (new value - old value) / timespan and store it in the database. serge Maandag. -----Original Message----- From: Joe Rozzi [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, September 25, 2002 6:42 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [rrd-users] conversion Hi, I'm using snmpwalk on a switch to get bandwidth data. Say I have a line like the following: IF-MIB::ifInOctets.14 = Counter32: 2049398269 How would I mathematically go about converting that number into bytes (decimal). Is it already in decimal? Or what? Thanks in advance.
