Thanks for the replies, I just got in and I'm continuing my adventure

An additional piece of confusion from the FAQ site:

Anybody have any ideas how to monitor an Ascend MAX? 

Check /mrtg/contrib/ascendget directory where you unpacked mrtg.
Basically, you need to do the following:

   1.Get the Ascend MIB 
   2.Use mrtg v2.1 or later 
   3.Use the modified snmpwalk included in the ascendget directory. 
   4.Get TCL v7.5 or later. 
   5.Use a cron job to snmpwalk the MAX on intervals. 
   6.Add up the results. 
   7.Write out the files. 
   8.Use a modified cfg with mrtg.
