[mrtg] Re: Ascend Pipeline & inOctets

[Tim Kennedy]

Well,  for one, ascends are wonky boxes.  When you built your config for
the pipeline, you probably got back alot of commented out wan interfaces
as they were admin down at the time.   Each time the pipeline establishes
a b-channel connection, it will use a different wan port.  Therefore, you
need to either uncomment all those commented entries in your config (don't
forget to fix the bandwidth and maxbytes statements), or (this is what I
did) you can just take all the WAN interfaces and add the totals collected
into one graph.  Make the maxbytes equal to the total of two b-channels,
and you will see your traffic data properly.

If your ascend is actually reporting the wrong statistics via snmp, you
may need to upgrade the Ascend firmware, or move to a stable version.
Do you happen to know which version of software your ascend is running?
