[mrtg] Re: Network Errors -

[Tisdel, Matthew]

I would to see a copy of the config. 


I don't know of any scripts to run, but you could do the following:
* You could generate a number or errors if you were to set one side a switch
port connection to half duplex with the other being full duplex. 
* You could cause a lot of CRC's by plugging and unplugging the cable. 
* You could set the interface for 10Mbit and then set the switch to copy all
other ports out of that port (SPAN on a Cisco switch). That would overload
the port, assuming that you had plenty of traffic going through the other
ports.

This doesn't really have anything to do with MRTG - so in advance I
apologize.  But it may be helpful to the entire list if I get an answer.

I recently created a pretty cool config that will graph Cisco router errors
- specifically:
Runts
CRC's
Frames
Overruns
Late and Excessive collisons
Interface Discards and Output buffers swapped out -

O.k. - so I believe that everything is working correctly.  My problem is
that I have no way to test it to see if it is.  Does ANYONE know of an app
or a way that I can send traffic to a router that would cause any of the
above errors?

I'll share the config with anyone who wants it - Just shoot me an e-mail.
