Of course that graph is from an RRA/RRDtool, the question is how was the data acquired on *N* poller interval...
ssh and script from the NMS server vs. snmpd and OIDs. The good thing about exposing the bind9 data via snmp OIDs is that it's not specific or proprietary to one type of NMS, if you want to have both a cacti and an opennms server watching the same thing, you can.
