@name29 said in NetXMS - multiple config questions:

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.

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

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

Thank you.

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

1. 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).

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.

3. Yes, use an Instance Discovery DCI, then you can attach graphs to the performance tab automatically
   You can use filtering to only create certain DCIs/graphs, etc.

Could you please more elaborate? I found Instance discovery and looked into admin manual, but I dont understand how to use this feature.

Yes, server configuration -> UseInterfaceAliases
There are serveral options to use: https://wiki.netxms.org/wiki/Server_Configuration_Variables
