Graph templates for Squid

Makenshi · Guest

I have made templates for the following:-

HTTP Requests (requests per second)
HTTP Traffic (kilobytes per second)
Cache object (objects)

See them in action here.

The server is temporarily offline due to an upgrade issue. That'll teach me to do it remotely. If I wasn't off sick it would have been fixed by now. I shall take a trip in to fix it this evening.

i think it should has data field for snmp port coz squid use 3401 for its snmp so perhaps you should re adjust the scripts. how is it bro ?
your script was so cool!

I have the MIB and CFG file I have used to mointoring squid proxy service on port 3041 but how do I import that or get Cacti to reconize it?
I go to devices and try to query it but get SNMP error.
Any ideas will greatly help me, thank you.

The CFG File and MIB I use are with MRTG. It works fine with it but dunno how to import the MIB?

From the look of it, the problem is that Cacti cannot communicate with the snmp agent. First you need to check if your Squid has been compiled with snmp support. Also, you will need the correct directives for snmp in squid.conf. An example of these are:-

snmp_port 3401
acl snmppublic snmp_community public
snmp_access allow snmppublic
snmp_incoming_address 0.0.0.0
snmp_outgoing_address 255.255.255.255

Hope this helps!

hi all,

I am trying to graph my two squid servers, but with no lucky. One machine is running redhat9, so i checked squid src rpm and the squid.spec already had a configure option to --enable-snmp. So i think that my squid is fine, snmp enabled.

I edited the squid.conf and added the lines:

snmp_port 3401
acl snmppublic snmp_community public
snmp_access allow snmppublic
snmp_incoming_address 0.0.0.0
snmp_outgoing_address 255.255.255.255

and then restarted squid, but no graph at all.

Any idea of what else should be done for getting the squid graphs??

thanks in advance,
Clovis Sena

SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.3495.1.3.2.1.15.0 = Counter32: 1

as I see, squid snmp is working, but I still can't have graph data.

any idea??

I am making some more tests here and I would like to know if cacti is reaally using other port than default port 161...

How could I check this??

i posted a host template for bluecoat proxies. this should work on squid as they use the same mibs.

a brave soul should use the search button to find it.

hi all,

searching the forums, I've found this:

http://forums.cacti.net/viewtopic.php?t=6057&highlight=port+3401

-----------------------------------------
You can configure your snmpd.conf file to passthrough snmp queries like ...

proxy -v 1 -c <communityname> <squid_machine>:3401 .1.3.6.1.4.1.3495.1

In my case -

proxy -v 1 -c public localhost:3401 .1.3.6.1.4.1.3495.1

Hope this helps.

-P
----------------------------------------

This worked for me. Now I am getting my squid data beeing graphed.

I hope it helps somebody else.

Clovis.
