creating a trigger for snmp item in zabbix

I have a problem in defining a trigger for a SNMP item in zabbix. The SNMP OID is 'IF-MIB::ifHCInOctets.10001' & the key is 'inbound_traffic10001' for the item.

The item stores Delta (simple change) & update interval is set 20 120 seconds.

I have defined a trigger with the following expression:

{Template SNMP-v2 Switch C3750:inbound_traffic10001.last()}>2000000

I want the trigger fires if the inbound traffic of the port 1 of the switch goes over 2MBs.

But the problem is that the traffic goes over 2MB but the trigger does not fire!!!

Any help is appreciated.

Solution

  • As we discovered through the discussion, the "Store value" setting in the item should be set to Delta (Speed per second).
