Hello,

In the Web page <URL:http://trolls.troll.no/sysadm/mrtg.html#dlink>,
you say that:

>If that sounds stupid, that's because it is stupid. Their "definition"
>makes the switch count only about 0.003% of the traffic passing
>through it.

>D-Link has twice told us that they will not fix this bug (oops --
>change this definition), so we will return that switch. (The console
>program, which counts correctly, can't really be used with MRTG. Its
>output is too hard to parse.)

It is no longer true. I recently complained at the Dlink support and
they sent me recent firmware versions (the first ones were flagged as
beta but, according to Dlink, they are now stable) which do solve this
problem. My MRTG now can nicely plot the Dlink ports.
