[mrtg] Re: Win2K Interface ID changes on reboot

[Daniel R . Kilbourne]

Cisco routers used to also do this until an option
"snmp ifindex persist" was added to the IOS

Is there a similar option for win2k?


You do not need to lose old info, though. Just run cfgmaker, and change the target of your current config

ie:


change Target[win2k]: 33554436 at 127.0.0.1

to 


       Target[win2k]: 16777220 at 127.0.0.1
