I ran into an issue with that showing some bizarre stuff though on like
PTP800 radios, etc. that use standard SNMP interface stats, but don't have
an ifAlias on them. I did something so that it was automatically
propagated on our Cisco switches and routers, but can't for the life of me

Better to do it in the graph template which you're using for the interface
traffic chart on the device, rather than per-device, unless you want to do
a lot of manual hand editing. Edit the graph template and then save it,
all interfaces that use that template should then automatically update
htems
Yep. If you go into the graphs for the device, and change the "Title"
section to say this: |host_description| - Traffic - |query_ifName| -
|query_ifAlias|That will pull the data from the description on the port
into the graph.
As George said also, you can change the data query templates to
I think you can add |query_ifDescr| or |query_ifAlias| to the graph
title. I know the MikroTik interface comment shows up in SNMP at
ifAlias. No idea on Cisco.
If you change the data query template, I think it will only make new
graphs that way.

In Cacti, is there a way to make the Cisco interface descriptions show up on
the corresponding graph?
All I currently get is the Interface name, which gets confusing at times.
Thanks
