Marshall,

If the value is a counter you don't get the exact value of the data as it comes in you get the delta from last time. This is most likely interpolated to match the next expected time for the value.

Yeah, through trial and error counter seems to be the right type but the format string is what I'm trying to get straight.

These will be non-decimal or * 8 numbers, I just want to graph the exact number returned from the snmp query, what would be the format string for that and could you point me to a reference for those formats?

%1lf and %0.1lf perform some unwanted decimal placement and arithmatic on the returned values, bank and % don't seem to work at all.

Your type should be COUNTER or GAUGE.  Yours are likely GAUGE values.

I'm trying to set up a couple rrd data sources and graphs for a few devices and oids that are integers, one is the off a Cisco CSS returning the number of current connections to a given service and the other is off a dialup device reporting how many DS0s are currently being used.


An example is below;

$ snmpget -v 2c -c xxx 10.25.254.4 1.3.6.1.4.1.2467.1.15.2.1.63.5.112.101.97.114.108 SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.2467.1.15.2.1.63.5.112.101.97.114.108 = INTEGER: 34

$ snmpget -v 2c -c xxx 10.25.254.4 1.3.6.1.4.1.2467.1.15.2.1.63.5.112.101.97.114.108 SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.2467.1.15.2.1.63.5.112.101.97.114.108 = INTEGER: 63

$ snmpget -v 2c -c xxx 10.25.254.4 1.3.6.1.4.1.2467.1.15.2.1.63.5.112.101.97.114.108 SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.2467.1.15.2.1.63.5.112.101.97.114.108 = INTEGER: 57


My question is, in the PerfConf menu what should be my "Type" setting what should be my format sting?
