Grafana 6 : Create a Cisco Switch Dashboard with the InfluxDB 1.9/Telegraf Data Source
Documentation : https://sbcode.net/grafana/cisco-swit...
In this example, my switch is on an internal network and I create a Dashboard using the InfluxDB data source, showing throughput of all it's interfaces,
On my internal network, I created a port forwarding rule to allow the external Telegraf agent, running on my Grafana Server in the cloud, to query SNMP.
The SNMP protocol uses UDP and port 161 by default.
My Switch is a Cisco 2950, connected and working on my internal network.
It has,
* SNMP enabled,
* A community named to "external",
* An ACL set to only allow the IP of my Grafana server for the "external" community,
* The default gateway set to the IP address of my main network router that also has internet access.
