Hello,

you would need the OIDs of those counters in order to use Custom SNMP Sensors, there could you configure the unit, or use multiplication/devision settings to get the desired information. Otherwise it's only possible to monitor broadcast/multicast packets on SNMP Traffic Sensors.

Best Regards.
