I originally posted this in opensolaris->discuss but that list seems to be 
going downhill so I am reposting here

I am using snmp to get a graph the network traffic from our servers. I looked 
at /etc/sma/snmp/mibs/IF-MIB.txt and it mentions two counters

ifInOctets Counter32
ifHCInOctets Counter64

Since the interfaces are connected to gigE link I need the 64 bit counter to 
get any valid data but it doesn't seem to be there when I snmpwalk

root:/etc/sma/snmp/mibs# snmpwalk -v1 -c public localhost iso | grep -i octets
IF-MIB::ifInOctets.1 = Counter32: 0
IF-MIB::ifInOctets.2 = Counter32: 2745997873
IF-MIB::ifOutOctets.1 = Counter32: 0
IF-MIB::ifOutOctets.2 = Counter32: 493562995

root:/etc/sma/snmp/mibs# snmpwalk -v2c -c public localhost iso | grep -i octets
IF-MIB::ifInOctets.1 = Counter32: 0
IF-MIB::ifInOctets.2 = Counter32: 2910951603
IF-MIB::ifOutOctets.1 = Counter32: 0
IF-MIB::ifOutOctets.2 = Counter32: 523063265

I could get it from kstats but I'll have to write a script and put it in 
snmpd.conf. But does anyone know why it's not in snmp already, or am I doing 
something wrong?
