[mrtg] Re: Bits versus Bytes

[Keith Kruepke]

Paul,

The information at the top of the page is created by cfgmaker for each target, and then it is just statically contained in your config file.  Just open your config file edit the PageTop[] entry for your target to read whatever you want it to read.  That should solve your problem.  It is much easier (and more accurate) than playing with the MaxBytes value.

Subject: [mrtg] Bits versus Bytes


I set up MRTG to run without using the bits option in the config file. Most
people that look at 
this asks why it is 12.5M/Bytes on a 100MBit link.  So not to confuse the
issue I added the 
bits option to the config file.  This changes the graph to Bits per Second
on the Graph but
the Max speed on the tops of the chart shows 12.5 MBytes . If I change the
config file to 
100000000 will this throw off the calculation on the charts or should I
being doing this in the
first place?


Thank you in advance

Paul Hewitt
