Alfredo,

RFC2863, the IF-MIB, has its first table named ifTable which contains many
OIDs that could provide the data you are looking for. IfSpeed is a bandwidth
metric, and other statistical characteristics are in subsequent OIDs. You
would have to walk or access the particular OIDs in each device to learn if
they are adequately supported on your selected devices. They often are, but
each case is unique. These are often supported by vendor's devices to avoid
the need for enterprise specific MIBs to duplicate the same information. The
advantage of standards! Try these.
HTH,

Hi to everyone. I hope you will be ok.

The scenario is the following: I have in my network
three Cisco Switch, a Cisco Router and various PCs
with WindowsXP and GNU/Linux operating system. All of
them have support to SNMP v1, v2 or v3. 

I want to know, how could I measure the bandwidth
outcoming and incoming of all devices? I mean, which
MIB-II objects could let me know the bandwith? And how
could I use SNMP4J in order to obtain that
information?..

Beforehand thank you very much for your help and
suggestions.

Alfredo Rico.
