[mrtg] MRTG on NT 4.0

[Alf Hardy]

Hello all,

I am configuring MRTG in various ways to reflect router interface
configurations and usage.

In the case where I use a series of specific OID's to calculate, let say,
the interface utilisation how will MRTG generate the respective Max in, Max
out, Average In Average out etc!!!!. I appreciate that the legend can be
changed to reflect any text. 

In the case where I choose to record the Interface utilisation and change
the Ylegend accordingly, the results graphed will reflect megs instead of
bytes per second. 

1.	If the interface util is very low, say < 1 meg on the graph, the In
and Out variables will be represented as 2 lines resting on the x axis. Even
when using the scaled option by inference,  the variables are still
represented as 2 lines resting on the x axis. Obviously this defeats the
purpose of using MRTG as we require a visual representation of interface
util. I would expect MRTG to scale the variables to reflect  the maximum
upper threshold recorded whether this be 16 k or 800k and not scale it on
the maximum capacity of the interface. 

2.	If I configure the above the max in/out, average in/out and current
thresholds are reflecting 100 % values which obviously doesn't make sense.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Regards


Alf
