Rats.
Something else is broken. After I installed the fix64bit, the settings
showed up under Misc. Fine. But when I look at one of those graphs,
the fix64bit icon is MIA.

No, 64-bit counters are part of the standard IF-MIB, not MT specific.
This is what I'm talking about. This is out of Cacti's interface.xml
data query template. All standard stuff.

I've used the Fix64 plugin many many times and never had a problem
with it. Just converts the data source to use 64bit counters on the
next poller cycle.

Thanks George,
Yah. Had it V2c, and was trying to see what (if any) changes it made
to the RRD files. They were the same, so I suspected something was
amiss. I think you also need to poll the Mikrotik-specific OIDs
(.1.3.6.1.4.1.14988 + ). The stock interface Data Queries built into
cacti don't go there (.1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1 +).
I will look at the Fix64Bit plugin too.

If you're set to in/out bits, then you're on 32bit counters. in/out
bits (64bit) is what you want. There's completely different OIDs for
in/out 64bit octets, called ifInHCOctets or something like that.
You can convert a 32bit graph/RRD to 64 using the Fix64Bit plugin.
All the data stays intact. I believe you need to be polling the host
as SNMP v2 to get the 64-bit counters as well.

I noticed that we're using 32-bit counters on some of our Mikrotik
interfaces, and they are over-running the counter between 5-minute
intervals. I added new counters that identify themselves as 64-bit
counters when I add them, but for all intents and purposes the RRD
files look the same. I tried running rrdtool info on them, but
nothing shouts out "64-bit!". Is there a way to confirm that an RRD
file is actually 64-bit?
