Ok Morten, thank you for anwser my question.
After changed the code, the job is almost done. But, I need to make crickets checks in another devices too (like printers, wireless devices and some servers). So, most of these devices doesn't require tagged VLANs. So, put a Trunk=True will ignore those kind of devices. At my first e-mail, I forgot to consider this...
The suggested change will only require a switch port to be trunking for it to be configured into Cricket. System statistics from devices are unaffected by this change, as are statistics from any port that isn't operating as a switch port.
I was thinking that could be an option (now with cricket and after with graphite) that we could inform through config file a range of mac address vendors that must be considered by cricket/graphite. What do you think?
I don't think we can prioritize such a feature in mcc, as we're in the process of throwing it all out.
We haven't yet put any filtering capabilities into the upcoming ipdevpoll statistics modules, but we might. Delays in single devices won't be that much of an issue for the overall statistics collection in ipdevpoll, since polling of devices occurs in parallel, and not in a serial fashion.
ipdevpoll currently has the capability of individual SNMP parameters per device, but this has not been implemented in the configuration file yet. We would need some kind of useful way of specifying single devices or groups of devices to set parameters for using the INI-style config file format.
