Nagios Support Forum

Hello,

I am using check_iftraffic64 to monitor out bandwidth. I notice that when something goes critical and an email is triggered the additional information in the email has a very strange format:

Additional Info:

CRITICAL - IN bandwidth (17040859915.59%) too high

Has anyone seen this or have a tip on how to get this to show a correct percent?

Regards,

Shawn

What is the command definition for this check?

Hi:

Same issue here.
The command: ./check_iftraffic64.pl -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -C comunity -i 10001 -B

Thanks in advance for your help.

Could you post a link to this plugin, or just attach a copy of it please?

You can find it here:
http://exchange.nagios.org/directory/Pl ... 64/details

We're currently looking through the plugin, I would highly suggest contacting the creator at the email address he/she listed on the exchange page, they would likely be a bit faster at fixing this up as this is a non standard plugin, and if it is a bug, it's a good thing to report up to them.

Hi:

I have added the switch --32bits and seems to be OK, but I need more time to see the result.
With this setting you will force to the pluging to use 32 bits counters instead 64 bits counters.

./check_iftraffic64.pl -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -C comunity -i 10001 -B --32bits

Are you certain your device has 64 bit counters for port speed?

Hi:

I do not really know, is a Cisco Catalyst.
Anyway, the problem seems to be solved.

Thank you.

shodg001, did any of the steps work for you?
