..do an 'snmpwalk host community' on the Filer and it'll spit out a load of interesting variables to play with - the ones you're looking for are:
Yup done that one. Now I thought I had figured by pulling these stats. But my take on it was that was the bytes per interface _since boot_ for that interface? Is that correct? I ask, because on our filers these values are insanly large, and if taken as a Octects/s then apparently our filers are shifting 25Pb/s - man wish they did :))
Yeh it's cumulative - it'll rollover when it gets to the maximum value for a 32-bit int, cricket should automatically take the roll-over into a account although you might have to do some tinkering with it to get it down to octets/sec.
So, basically the choices are MiB or snmpwalk'ing. Okay here's one: how do I convert 'interfaces.ifTable.ifEntry.ifInOctets.1' to it's corresponding OID?
Assuming you're using the ucd-snmp package, just type:
snmptranslate interfaces.ifTable.ifEntry.ifInOctets.1
