For anyone that finds this in the future, here’s the process I followed:
- Get the port id by hovering over each port and looking for port=[number] in the URL at the bottom of the browser. Alternately you can click into the port and it will show in the address bar.
- Go here - https://[your librenms URL]/graphs/id=[comma separated list of ports you want to graph]/type=multiport_bits
- Right click the image and select “Copy Image Location”
- Add the widget “External Images” to the dashboard
- Paste the link you copied above in to the “Image URL” box, and delete everything before “graph”. The result should look like this:
graph.php?id=1217%2C1218&type=multiport_bits&from=1480621200&to=1480707600&height=317.66666666667&width=1664.1 - Change the from= and to= values in the URL to the date range you want to display. For instance, “from-1d&to-300” will display from one day ago to five minutes ago.
- In order to make the text scale with the size of the widget window append, “&absolute=1” to the end of the URL.
- If you want clicking the image to result in a larger image opening, paste that into the, “Target URL” box. I adjusted my from/to so that it would open to a seven day view.
Apologies if this is all really obvious, I just didn’t want to be like DenverCoder9.
