    Brocade SNMP counters not making sense

    Hi @ Forum

    I have set up zabbix to get snmp values from some Brocade XMR routers.

    Right now I just need some statistics from the interfaces.

    The items are set up like this:
    Type SNMPv2 agent
    OID: .1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.16.2
    Key: IF_MIB__ifOutOctets.2
    Type of information: Numeric (unsigned)
    Data type: Decimal
    Units: bps
    Custom multiplier 8
    Update interval: 20
    Store value: Delta (speed per second)

    I am receiving values but when reaching approx. 1,5 gbit/sec the values stop making sense or are delayed for minutes.

    Zabbix version:
    Zabbix Server v1.8.7 (revision 21394) (1 September 2011)
    Compilation time: Sep 12 2011 09:51:07

    mysql Ver 14.14 Distrib 5.1.49, for debian-linux-gnu (x86_64) using readline 6.1

    Debian 6.

    Any suggestions?

    Is this a datatype problem?

    Kind regards

      You need to poll the 64 bit SNMP counters. Searching the Internet (or your MIBs) for ifHCInOctets or ifHCOutOctets should point you in the right direction.

          HC counters

          Hi

          Thanks for the reply.

          It was indeed HC counters that needed to be read.

          Thank you

          -Michael
