[mrtg] Re: Options: unknaszero

[Troy Corbin]

i have(had) the exact same problem on a few ds3's and ethernet ports that
barely hit 10mb/sec. Crazy dips nearly every hour which looked like i was
having issues, but after enabling unknaszero, my graphs are smooth both
rising and falling, and no weird dips.
