Someone may have set up a custom port description parser.
do :
grep port_descr_parser config.php includes/defaults.inc.php
inside the observium directory.

I looked at a port on a switch which right now is amonth the ports which are being aggregated and I do not see Transit mentioned in the description. This makes me think someone might have edited it somewhere in an Observium file. I have not found a place to edit this via the GUI so I am wondering which file would hold this data. And where the file is located. * c3.8 # show port 14 description Port Display String Description String ===== ==================== ================================================== 14 14_BR1_xe-0/1/5 ===== ==================== ================================================== * c3.9 # Med venligst hilsen, Thomas Steffensen Network Administrator Parknet | Esromgade 15, opgang 1, 5. sal | 2200 København N | Phone +45 3690 6000 Mobil +45 4265 0504 | www.parknet.dk [http://www.parknet.dk/] From: observium observium-bounces@observium.org On Behalf Of Adam Armstrong Sent: Tuesday, August 28, 2018 2:43 PM To: Observium observium@observium.org Subject: Re: [Observium] How do you configure Internet traffic Today https://docs.observium.org/port_descr_parsing [https://docs.observium.org/port_descr_parsing%5D/ Port usage is determined by the port description configured on the router itself.

But I don’t want to do that before I really understand the system. I just see on my current dashboard that it is measuring internet traffic and that it is doing it by aggregating ports. I just don’t know how to change this. And I do not see that any of the ports that are being aggregated currently has Transit nor that I can edit this anywhere. Is it done trough CLI?

Makes much more sense to define a port-group in Observium then to need to reconfigure your network stuff to please Observium. :) /Markus Den tis 28 aug. 2018 kl 10:22 skrev Thomas Steffensen <thomass@parknet.dk [mailto:thomass@parknet.dk]>: I am running an older version though: 16.10.8128 I have one interface that is pulling data but I cannot see anywhere that it says Transit ☹ Med venligst hilsen, Thomas Steffensen Network Administrator Parknet | Esromgade 15, opgang 1, 5. sal | 2200 København N | Phone +45 3690 6000 Mobil +45 4265 0504 | www.parknet.dk [http://www.parknet.dk/] From: observium <observium-bounces@observium.org [mailto:observium-bounces@observium.org]> On Behalf Of Adam Armstrong Sent: Monday, August 27, 2018 6:00 PM To: observium@observium.org [mailto:observium@observium.org] Subject: Re: [Observium] How do you configure Internet traffic Today Though this has been at least partially replaced by the traffic comparison module if you also have peering traffic! adam.

It will aggregate all ports with a description that starts with "Transit: " and show in that graph. So you need to edit the router Interface description and have it start with "Transit:" and then Observium will pick it Up automatically! /Markus Den mån 27 aug. 2018 16:50Thomas Steffensen <thomass@parknet.dk [mailto:thomass@parknet.dk]> skrev: Hi, I am not sure if this is the right forum but I need some help with basic settings in Observium. I admit I have very little experience with Observium but a great deal with Solarwinds and The Dude (Mikrotik). On my main dashboard window I have a tab saying Internet Traffic Today. This monitors ports to the internet. However, we have replaced some border router and therefor I need to change which ports are being monitored and I can’t seem to figure out where I change this? Can I do this in GUI?
