Before we continue
Creating data input methods using scripts or queries involves quite some programming and network knowledge. This chapter built up the complexity by going from a simple local data input method to a more complex data query and building a remote executed input method. If you feel lost in any of these exercises you should try to focus on one of them before moving on to the next step. If you want to learn more about data queries, you should visit the HowTo sections on the Cacti website, as well as the relevant section in the Cacti online manual.
