The huge Cacti traffic spike coincided with adding a 4 port fiber module to the 4200 switch.  Juniper claimed it was hot swappable, however the issues were more than they eluded to.  

This came about since I donated some modules to hold MICE over until a more permanent hardware upgrade can be picked.  The good news is the 4500 now has 4 additional SFP+ ports, and the 4200 now has 4 SFP ports.  This will allow some of the members that are at 1G that needed a fiber handoff to be moved to the 4200 freeing up additional 10G ports in the 4500.

I was going to say that I thought we were doing exactly that at http://micemn.net but when I pulled up the website to verify, I see that something is very wrong with the graph.

Did anyone change something in Cacti recently?
