We recently purchased 10 SRW 2048 switch to upgrade from 10/100
I am having an issue seeing the total traffic across the VLAN with an SNMP walk
I am using web based application called Cacti http://www.cacti.net to monitor my servers and switches for traffic spikes.
I can see individual ports with Cacti, if I create a LAG I can see the traffic on the 8 ports (Maximum allowed) in the LAG also in Cacti.
When i do a SNMP Walk of the Vlan I get the following
+ Index found at OID: 'interfaces.ifTable.ifEntry.ifIndex.100000' value: '100000' + Found item [ifIndex='100000'] index: 100000 [from value] + Found item [ifOperStatus='Up'] index: 100000 [from value] + Found item [ifDescr='vlan'] index: 100000 [from value] + Found item [ifName='1'] index: 100000 [from value] + Found item [ifAlias=''] index: 100000 [from value] + Found item [ifType='propVirtual(53)'] index: 100000 [from value] + Found item [ifSpeed='0'] index: 100000 [from value] + Found item [ifHwAddr='00:24:51:E1:85
C'] index: 100000 [from value]
on all of the other ports, and the LAG group I create I see this
+ Found item [ifSpeed='1000000000']
Where the VLAN shows '0' for ifSpeed
I see this this on all 10 of the new switches, the only difference between them is the ifHwAddr (MAC Address) which I would expect.
How do I turn on the Statistics for the VLAN so I can see all traffice that comes across the switch?
Thanks,
Sam

I believe that there's a statistics tab on the switch web base configuration. From what I understand, there were several information that you can get from the Statistics tab. RMON statistics, Port Utilization, and up to GVRP statistics.
Just access the web base utility of the switch to check out this option, it might help you and added information for you.

You are correct there is a RMON section and GVRP , and port utilization .. I have been all through those sections and every other section in the Web client.. those seem to focus on individual port statistics, or if I create a LAG I can see the statisctics on that as well..
I am looking for total traffic for the entire switch, on my D-Link switches it shows the traffic on the VLAN as a seperate statistic and gives me total bandwidth usage for the entire switch .
