I have searched through numerous posts, yet seem to still be in need of help.
I will attempt to keep this as simple as possible.
We currently use MRTG, and due to the nature of MRTG, we are able to display very simple graphs on a single page in any order we choose to code the page.
For my example, we have a customer that has 7 Cisco 3750s. We currently graph the 1 uplink interface on each device, as well as the bundled interface, showing the total traffic.
Since MRTG is very time consuming to continually keep up with maintenance of device(s)/interface(s), I would like to use NPM.
Currently, the closest graph, and way, I could find is using the "Custom Object Resource", setting it for "Average bits per second", copy it multiple times, and change the interface on each one of them.
This one single graph takes up about the same space as 3 of our MRTG graphs. This takes us from being able to view nearly all interface traffic on a page, to having to scroll many pages to view them all.
What I would like to do is take only the graph from the custom object resource (or any other way)...
I only want to use the part of the resource outlined in RED...
and take that graph part and add it several times on the same view...
I feel like I am missing something extremely simple and basic here.
MRTG is a super old tool with a pricetag of $0.00, yet it seems to be able to do the basics.
I have tried several "Custom HTML" resource options, as well as a few other custom resource options, but none of them appear to be able to provide the most basic of requests.
As a side note, I do have all of the customer's 3750s in a group, as well as each uplink interface in a different group. I also have custom properties for each 3750 and each uplink interface. I originally thought I could just do a group page and show the same graph 7x, based on the custom properties, but it seems to just pull up devices/interfaces/groups that were the first ones added to our system. I can manually go to the URL and change the "netobject-C:6" to the correct value for the group "netobject=C:63", which then pulls the correct group info. However, it still does not allow me to create this very simple looking page we are accustom to.
Thank you very much for any help.
