If you change your probe to use SNMPv2c it should fix the problem. You do this under "Set Probe". SNMPv1 uses 32 bit counters. SNMPv2c uses 64 bit counters. Another bonus of SNMPv2c over v1 is that it can differentiate counts of multicast packets from broadcast packets. A best practice with Intermapper is to change the default for new devices from SNMPv1 to SNMPv2c. You do this under Edit Server Settings. All modern devices support v2c. (I don't know why Dartware hasn't made this the default setting.) For legacy maps it's worth going through all of your maps and devices and changing SNMPv1 to SNMPv2c in my opinion. ____________________________________________________________________ List archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/intermapper-talk%40list.dartware.com/ To unsubscribe: send email to: intermapper-talk-...@list.dartware.com
