[AusNOG] Cacti Graphing @ 100MBit

Hi Daniel,

You might find it is snmpd on the host if it is Linux.

The SNMP daemon doesn't have permissions to get the speed of the interface
and so defaults to 1000Mbit.

If you add:
interface eth0 6 1000000000

to your snmpd.local.conf file, this will fix the problem.

Of course maybe I am barking up the wrong tree, but this has been a problem
for me in the past.

Good luck.
Greg.
