I'm glad to see i'm not the only one.
I have the same problem. In fact, when snmp IF-MIB::ifInOctets and
IF-MIB::ifOutOctets are polled locally, i.e. a snmpwalk from the box where snmpd
runs, it works perfectly :
titan:~# snmpwalk -c local -v1 127.0.0.1 IF-MIB::ifInOctets
IF-MIB::ifInOctets.1 = Counter32: 54982899
IF-MIB::ifInOctets.2 = Counter32: 53813228721
IF-MIB::ifInOctets.3 = Counter32: 0
IF-MIB::ifInOctets.4 = Counter32: 0
titan:~# snmpwalk -c local -v1 127.0.0.1 IF-MIB::ifOutOctets
IF-MIB::ifOutOctets.1 = Counter32: 54983632
IF-MIB::ifOutOctets.2 = Counter32: 271687064227
IF-MIB::ifOutOctets.3 = Counter32: 0
IF-MIB::ifOutOctets.4 = Counter32: 0
Then, polling from a network-authorised host give me this :
roxane:~# snmpwalk -c community -v1 titan IF-MIB::ifInOctets
IF-MIB::ifInOctets.1 = Counter32: 54985914
IF-MIB::ifInOctets.2 = Counter32: 54985914
IF-MIB::ifInOctets.3 = Counter32: 0
IF-MIB::ifInOctets.4 = Counter32: 0
roxane:~# snmpwalk -c community -v1 titan IF-MIB::ifOutOctets
IF-MIB::ifOutOctets.1 = Counter32: 54985914
IF-MIB::ifOutOctets.2 = Counter32: 54985914
IF-MIB::ifOutOctets.3 = Counter32: 0
IF-MIB::ifOutOctets.4 = Counter32: 0
So, reported values are those from lo0, not eth0, when polled from network.
I can reproduce this on two box, two bi xeon nocona with debian amd64 installed.
Here is /proc/net/dev :
titan:~# cat /proc/net/dev
