This blog post provides a step-by-step tutorial to enable SNMP on HP ProCurve switches (via CLI or web GUI), configure an SNMPv1 read community string, add the switch as a device in Cacti, create interface traffic graphs, and place those graphs in Cacti's graph tree; it includes example CLI commands and a reminder that SNMPv1 queries are unencrypted.
