    Item for bandwidth monitoring please?

    Hi,

    I'd like to create a graph of the current bandwidth being used in each of my servers. I've tried using the default item supplied by Zabbix (net.if.total[if,bytes]) but it simply wont show up anything.
    Could anyone please give me a hand?

    Thanks

    You have to replace 'if' with the name of the interface.

    net.if.total[eth0,bytes]

    Didn't the example say "net.if.total[<if>,bytes]" instead of "net.if.total[if,bytes]"
    These signs (< and >) are a standard way of telling you to substitute it for the actual thing.

      xcalibur, there is this fantastic thing called documentation, and the documentation for Zabbix is actually pretty good, please have a look.
