I'm trying to set up some custom SNMP checks for some wireless gear we have.  
Oids which return finite stats like signal level create graphs just the way I 
would expect.  Oids which return counters, such as octets in or out, create 
graphs that just continually increase (this kind of makes sense when you think 
about it).  I've been trying to figure out how to make Opsview realize that the 
data to be graphed is a counter, not a measurement.  My understanding is that 
when Nagios returns interface statistics it includes something in the string of 
data that makes the graphing system know that it's a counter vs. a hard value.  
Has anybody run into this?  Is there a switch or something I'm missing when 
creating custom SNMP checks, or do I need to dig under the hood a little and 
possibly manually create the RRDs?
