interface description config

[sevan]

I am trying to configure graph and it shows the interface 0/0 for example name, and I need to configure it to show on drop down the server description which connected to that port, for example DNS server is connected to fastethernet 0/1.
I need in Grap drop down menu shows DNS, instead of FastEthernet 0/1.
if anyone have any idea please advise.

Hey Sevan,

welcome to the forums.

There is no way to automate the names of the graphs at this moment as the support of macro's in the titles is not available. The only way to change the name in the dropdown menu is to change the name of the graph on the host(switch) you are looking into.

Hope this helps you.

modify desc interface to my graph

Starting with Zabbix 2.2, item values can be referenced in the name by using simple macros. When i paste into field name text: "Port GE 1 stats {{HOSTNAME}:ifAlias10101.last(0)}" it works fine, on a graph i see description of port, but only first 20 characters of it. When i look into "latest data" i see that item value have full description of port, with all characters. Why into graph name this item is limited to 20 characters?
