[c-nsp] Fwd: IOS-XR and MRTG interface counters not working (SOLVED)

[Lee Starnes]

Actually, it looks like the tech I had setup the mrtg config for this
particular router had used the IP of one of the gig interfaces instead of
the loopback interface. Changing it to use the loopback interface IP has it
polling the correct data. It was running 64bit counters, but was just
getting some bogus counters data using the interface IP. While I'm not sure
why it would get the bogus counter data using that IP, it should have using
the loopback IP in the first place.

Anyway, thank you everyone who replied.

What snmp version is mrtg using to poll your router? When near 100 megs or
above you need to use at least snmp v2c or later and the 64 bit counters aka
HC counters.

Hello,

Has anyone had problems getting MRTG to pull counters from a 12410XR? We
have it configured to poll interface counters and while the Gig interfaces
have 80-100Mbps on them at all times, yet MRTG shows between 5.9bps and
7.2bps. Have not seen this on any of our IOS gear, so wondering if there is
something different that has to be setup besides the snmp community to get
this data.

We are running XR version 4.0.1.

Thanks,

Lee.
