Cacti bandwidth usage changes on 4.6.1

Anyone using Cacti to measure bandwidth usage on interfaces? It seems like on 4.6.1 the index numbers got changed so now on my Force 300 radios the upload and download graphs are flipped. If I revert to 4.6.0.1 the graphing is correct.

If I run a query against a radio on On 4.6.0.1 I see this

  • Found item [ifHwAddr=‘00:04:56:28:7D:34’] index: 1 [from value]
  • Found item [ifHwAddr=‘00:34:56:78:9B:9B’] index: 2 [from value]
  • Found item [ifHwAddr=‘00:04:56:28:7D:33’] index: 3 [from value]

And on 4.6.1 I see this

  • Found item [ifHwAddr=‘00:04:56:28:7D:33’] index: 1 [from value]
  • Found item [ifHwAddr=‘00:04:56:28:7D:34’] index: 2 [from value]
  • Found item [ifHwAddr=‘00:34:56:78:4C:4C’] index: 3 [from value]

So basically what is happening is when I originally added these radios to Cacti I bound it to the WLAN interface which had an Index of 1. But on the 4.6.1 firmware, the LAN interface now has an Index of 1 so the graphing is backwards.

Hi. I can’t help - but I’d be interested in finding out the answer also. :slight_smile:

Actually, I’d be willing to hire someone to help configure our CACTI server - if anyone wants to PM me (not to hijack this thread). I just don’t have time in the day to do everything, so I need to hire this out. :slight_smile:
