I just threw out a really quick idea as people seem to be having this problem more and more and it almost always new users.
Just thought that if cfgmaker was told to use snmpv1 (maybe v3) then it will default to use v2c. Then it would check for both the ifHC[in|out]octets and if[In|Out]octets. If the ifHC[In|Out]octets returns what seems to be a valid result for the snmp ifnumber/ifindex then it will use that. Should that poll return anything that wouldn't be a valid result (string, error, etc..) then fail automatically to the older 32 bit counters. I'm willing to bet that most vendors these days do support the 64 bit counters. I know all but 1 of the vendors I work with support them (Cisco, Juniper (M/E Series), Redback, Foundry, and ECI). Again, if I could do anything more than write a 10 line perl script I would happily give this a shot but I just don't have that ability nor the time these days (CCIE is killing me).

Hi Jan, so what you suggest is to have cfgmaker test on its own if the router can do snmpv2 and use it automatically ? The thing MrPaul wants it for mrtg to try and poll oids which are defined in snmpv2 ONLY via snmpv1 ... cheers tobi
