[mrtg] Re: ifOperStatus

[Andreas Nolte]

Hi, if the ethernet cards support MIB2, it's not a problem. You can use 1.3.1.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.8 this is the ifOperStatus, which describes the operational status of the interface.
After the number 8, you should place the correct interface index (i.e. 1 for the 1st; 2 for the 2nd Interface etc.)

You should get a number like 0 for down or 1 for up. You can set the MaxBytes to 1. Then as long as the interface is up, you should see a green area. If the interface goes down (0), the the green area changes to white.

I hope this helps.

Regards Andreas
