Graphing Switch Ports

[Chris Waters]

You probably want to use something other than Nagios for this.  I use
cacti http://www.cacti.net to graph several hundred network devices.
You can use the extened info field to link back to cacti for the host
you selected in nagios (manual process to set up per host because most
of cacti references devices by an ID not the hostname).  Or, it's a lot
trickier but you could modify extinfo cgi to point to cacti for that
host and access the info from the Host Information links (very
difficult).

Subject: [Nagios-users] Graphing Switch Ports

Does anyone know if there is a reasonable way to poll 200+ switch ports
(on several switches) and have them graphed individually?
We've got nagiosgrapher going and it would seem the only way to
accomplish this is to setup a check for each port, which seems like
*alot*.
Thanks.
