This assumes node has atleast snmp v2c+ and support IfXTable!
This also assumes you are running atleast 2.0-M3!

Create a new DCI

In general tab

Description - Traffic on {instance-name} - bits/s IN
Parameter - .1.3.6.1.2.1.31.1.1.1.6.{instance}
Origin - SNMP
Data Type - Unsigned 64bit Int.

In Transformation tab

Delta calc
Avg delta per second

Transform script:
return $1 * 8;

Instance discovery tab

Instance discovery method
SNMP Walk - OIDs

Base OID
.1.3.6.1.2.1.31.1.1.1.1

Performance Tab tab

Check to show on perf tab
Give it a title, color, etc.

Then create a 2nd DCI for traffic OUT on that interface.
Use .1.3.6.1.2.1.31.1.1.1.10.{instance}

Also on Perf Tab, attach it to the previous DCI.
This is so you get both IN/OUT traffic for each interface on the same graph.

Hi tomaskir,

i tried to follow your instructions.

But if i set the title of the Graph to "Traffic on {instance-name} - bits/s" but netxms don't parse the {instance-name} value.

It's normal?

Thank you

Is there a way to show IFALIAS in interfaces table? Or better to replace interface names with this attribute.

I also needed this .. If you go to Configuration > ServerConfiguration and change UserInterfaceAliases value to 3 it will provide you with both if# and if Alias but it wont change instantly you will have to wait for the next polling interval I believe or you can simply go to the node you want to test on right click > poll > interfaces names and it should change it instantly

In 2.0, ifAlias is in interface table as a separate field, no need to use UserInterfaceAliases config parameter (its for a different use-case).

Which NetXMS version are you using?
What does a walk on .1.3.6.1.2.1.31.1.1.1.1 show?

Now i'm trying 2.0-RC2 and it's work.

Thank you.

I'm having this exact problem with 2.0rc2. I have created a template pretty much as described in this thread, appled it to an Ubiquiti Edgeswitch and on the perfomance tab I now have ~30 graphs called "Traffic on {instance-name}".

What parameters are supported in the Title field? I would like to add the ifAlias as well, if possible.
What did name29 do to get it working?
Walk from the above OID looks like this:

.1.3.6.1.2.1.31.1.1.1.1.1 [STRING]: 0/1
.1.3.6.1.2.1.31.1.1.1.1.2 [STRING]: 0/2
...
.1.3.6.1.2.1.31.1.1.1.1.26 [STRING]: 0/26
.1.3.6.1.2.1.31.1.1.1.1.65 [STRING]: CPU Interface:  5/1
.1.3.6.1.2.1.31.1.1.1.1.66 [STRING]: 3/1
...
.1.3.6.1.2.1.31.1.1.1.1.71 [STRING]: 3/6

Solved it - changed {instance-name} to {instance} and it works...although it's not quite what I'd expected. {instance} should be the ifIndex rather than the ifName, surely?

Maybe look at this thread: https://www.netxms.org/forum/announcements/netxms-1-2-16-released/msg15422/#msg15422

OK, fits my observations
