Hostname or IP Address
the snmp community string
Interface number, use snmpwalk to find yours:

snmpwalk -v2c -c community host 1.3.6.1.2.1.31.1.1.1.1
IF-MIB::ifName.1 = STRING: Fa0
This -^- is the interface-number

warning if bc expression return 1

[root@support libexec]$ ./check_snmp_traffic 172.16.1.8 public 1 ">200" ">400"
Traffic OK - .01 Mb/s in Sum|traffic=.01;>200;>400;0; In=.01;;;0; Out=0;;;0;

OUTPUT IS:-
IF-MIB::ifName.1 = STRING: Vl1
IF-MIB::ifName.5049 = STRING: Lo0
IF-MIB::ifName.10101 = STRING: Gi0/1
IF-MIB::ifName.10102 = STRING: Gi0/2

IF-MIB::ifName.10127 = STRING: Gi0/27
IF-MIB::ifName.10128 = STRING: Gi0/28

But, monitoring Gi0/24 interface gives below error.

I need a common plugin thru which I can monitor all SNMP enabled network devices graph i.e. CIsoc, Fortigate, Juniper, Windows & Linux OSes.

You are basing your math from the sleep timer. However you're forgetting that the snmpget can take longer than 0 seconds, which means that when the second trafbyteOut check runs, it has not been 0 seconds since the sleep of 1 second.

What you'll want to do is get the current times and compare the two.
