Interface monitoring via SNMP

I am wanting to monitor the interface throughput of both clustered and non-clustered F5 devices, all of which are version 11.0 or above. The SNMP MIB index that I am querying is .1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.1 and it's subtree, this index is able to determine the interface name, speed, MAC Address etc, however when I try to extract the interface throughput statictics of a VLAN wihtin a NIC team using this index the values are wrong.

 

Has anyone come across this issue before?

    I remember this from back in v9 days... I thought it was fixed by v11 though... Sorry, don't have anything to monitor it at the moment to check for you.

    Although you do have too many 1's on the end of that OID. The table is at .1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1

     

     

    A quick SNMP walk against my units reveals that the octet & packet counts remain stubbornly at 0 on a vCMP (And the vCMP host). Only the entries for the physical interfaces increment. Looks like they didn't do it after all.

    Is there anything in the roadmap to fix this, or would a CR be needed?
