SNMP Configuration

I had given up on Networx for a while but now that I got a SNMP-capable modem/router I came back to it (version 5.2.12).

My problem is that although I enabled SNMP in the router, I still get no traffic monitored. I tried a few of those WAN interfaces listed to no avail.

What do lo, sit0, br0, vc0_e, vc1_e mean? I gather what the other names mean (eth, wlan, ppp0) but not those others. Also, what number after these names, if any, should I choose?

I tried the new UPnP capabilities too, but again no success. I have enabled UPnP in the router, of course.

Any help?

It's up to the router's vendor how to name interfaces. In this case, with a degree of guessing: lo = loopback, br0 = bridge 0, vc0_e = virtual circuit 0 ethernet.

It's also up to the vendor how to handle traffic within the device. Some routers are based on Linux, some have a custom OS, so it's not really possible to say which interface will work.

I am afraid the only advice I can give, is try them all or download this utility and see what it reports for the interfaces.

Thank you for the information provided. The guesses look right. Still don't know what sit0 means though.

I have tried lots of options and tweaked the modem/router configuration quite a lot but had no success. The USB option did not work either. The ROUTER user appears in the Usage Report but disappears when I reset the data. I also tried the recommended utility (FrameFlow) and it indicated no communication with the modem/router, which seems to indicate something is still missing.

I will keep trying and waiting for new versions.
