I don't understand. What I do is to check the data already collected by
Cacti and based on that info generate a warning or a critical status.
Cacti's RRDs are the data in which I base the decisions about network
traffic.
Thanks after all. I will try to see more the link you attach to the =
mail.

transfer rates
Hello,
Please note that Cacti isn't the best tool to use with Nagios, look =
around
PNP ( www.pnp4nagios.org ) which is a perfdata handler.
Hasta luego

Objet=A0: [Nagios-devel] New plugin for checking Cacti (rrd databases)
transfer rates
Hello,
Because of my work I had to write a little PHP script to integrate
with Nagios. It works checking local RRD databases (Nagios and Cacti on =
same
computer for example) for incoming or outgoing transfer rates.=20
I think that this script can be useful to others, so I want to known if =
it
can be enhanced / corrected to be included in a future release.
The script, a configuration command file definition, and a demo host are
attached to this e-mail.
Saludos. Pablo.

$ check_rrdtraf.php -h
This plugin will check the incoming/outgoing transfer rates of a router,
switch, etc recorded in an Cacti rrd database By Pablo Armando (c) 2009
Usage:
check_rrdtraf [-h] -f rrd_file -I|-O -w min_warning -W =
max_warning
-c min_critial -C max_critical
Example:
check_rrdtraf -f /var/lib/cacti/rra/mx_1_traffic_in_239.rrd -w =
1000
-W 2000 -c 4000 -C 4500 -I
This checks if the input traffic (-I) is between 1000 and 2000kbps.
If this is true a warning message will be fired. If the input traffic is
between 4000 and 4500kbps then a critic message will be fired
-h Show this help
-f full path to rrd database
-I check input traffic from incoming data source
-O check output trafic from outgoing data source
-w start of warning range - Required
-W end of warning range - Required
-c start of critic range - Required
-C end of critic range - Required
The values for -w, -W, -c, and -C are expresed in kbps
