I have an SNMP traffic sensor which seems to be reporting the IN/OUT data in reverse of how it is flowing. Is there any way to reverse the sensor? I know I can create another custom sensor but that is just burning another sensor (which I don't have many of) to report the same data?

The sensor can only be inverted via the Sensor Factory sensor. You could also use a SNMP Custom Advanced sensor, but it lacks some advantages of the SNMP Traffic sensor, such as automatic renaming. The following OIDs are to be used:

32bit

1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.10.in traffic
1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.16.out traffic
1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.11.in unicast
1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.17.out unicast
1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.12.in non unicast
1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.18.out non unicast

64bit

1.3.6.1.2.1.31.1.1.1.6.in traffic
1.3.6.1.2.1.31.1.1.1.10.out traffic
1.3.6.1.2.1.31.1.1.1.7.in unicast
1.3.6.1.2.1.31.1.1.1.11.out unicast
1.3.6.1.2.1.31.1.1.1.8.in multicast
1.3.6.1.2.1.31.1.1.1.12.out multicast
1.3.6.1.2.1.31.1.1.1.9.in broadcast
1.3.6.1.2.1.31.1.1.1.13.out broadcast
