The issues I have encountered:
1. The brand of router I does not report to the SNMPD the correct
speed so the Ipsec0 interface reports speed as "Unkown" so the
speed.here command is not useful to me. I have even manually
changed the snmpd.conf file on the router to add the line:
interface ipsec0 ppp 60000
And remodelled the device.
It's always a pain when the SNMP agent won't properly report the
ifSpeed. However, there are things that can be done about it. The
first would be to globally setup the threshold against a static value
instead of the interface's speed. This is only a possibility if the
"type" of the interface is something special. Is the type of your
interface ethernetCsmacd, ppp or something else?
If it is something other than ethernetCsmacd you can create a special
template for it with a special hard-coded threshold. Step-by-step,
here's how you do this:
1. Go to Templates for /Devices
2. Check the ethernetCsmacd template
3. Choose Copy Templates from the menu
4. Copy it to the / device class
You'll now see a template called "copy_of_ethernetCsmacd"
5. Click on this copy to edit it
6. Change the name to the type of your ipsec0 interface
7. Set the description to something descriptive
8. Delete the threshold and create a new one
9. Choose the ifInOctets and ifOutOctets data points
10. Set the Max to the maximum BYTES/sec
