Improved Cacti Traffic Graphs

Traffic graphs in Cacti are alright to begin with but there are a few modifications you can make to both improve the look and usefulness of them.

Now this isn’t my idea, a member of the Cacti forums put up a rough guide to get people going. You can view this here http://forums.cacti.net/about25415.html. However to make things simple I have attached a template which should take care of the graph template, CDEF and also includes a few other changes. I have split the graph into positive for inbound and negative for outbound traffic and added a total traffic item to the graph which I use to monitor my ADSL traffic over a period of time.
