We use a number of LAG connections on our switches and I want to be able to track bandwidth use in real time of the LAG, not the individual ports that make up the LAG. I have checked our hardware vendors and they do not have a custom MIB to do SNMP Traffic of a LAG. Is there a way to combine two SNMP Traffic sensors into one so I can see the actual traffic?

Hello there,
thank your for your KB-Post.
Some devices will create an virtual interfaces for the LAG that shows up in the ifTable/ifXTable, which the default "SNMP Traffic Sensor" polls. If that does't work for you, you can use a different approach.
If you have two individual sensors for traffic, you can use the Sensor Factory sensor to aggregate the data from these two sensors into a 3rd sensor. Please have a look here:
The definition will look somewhat like this(with the corresponding sensor ids from your sensors) :
#1:Traffic Total Channel(4063,-1)+Channel(4064,-1) #2:Traffic IN Channel(4063,0)+Channel(4064,0) #3:Traffic OUT Channel(4063,1)+Channel(4064,1)
