Just curious as to if this is possible. I'd imagine that I would have to edit/get a new WeatherMapDataSource_rrd.php file.

Is this possible? has anyone done it?

I'd like to rotate between our traffic graph, and the link error graph. Somehow I envision it looking at Discards and errors - or maybe that's 2 different graphs - I dunno. or maybe it simply adds them up.

Thanks in advance for all replies, and thanks Howie for a terrific product.

If you can get it into an rrd file, then it can be mapped I haven't done it, but I would assume that somewhere in these great forums, there are templates for SNMP error counters.

So assuming you can get the error counters from the device, you can use the regular rrd plugin for weathermap to read them. The two relevant things to know are:

* You can get the bandwidth labels to be absolute, no K,M etc values by using "BWLABEL absolute"

* You can specify the RRD DS names on the end of the TARGET line, since they probably won't be traffic_in and traffic_out. This goes: "TARGET yourrrdfiled.rrd:indsname:outdsname"

Other than that, it should be pretty straightforward.
