[mrtg] Re: Help....

[Daniel R . Kilbourne]

wow.....where to begin


first off, It looks to me like global is mis-spelled (gloable)



second, the IP format looks ok to me


and I take it you do not know much about SNMP, the protocol that mrtg depends on

"community at router.abc.xyz" translates to snmp-read-community at router.ip.address
if this makes no sense to you, then you are probably not ready for mrtg. If you
absolutely need to do mrtg now, either read up on snmp online or, at the very least,
go onto your Cisco router and do a 'conf t' then type 'snmp ?'
