[mrtg] Re: Graphing the lo

[PAUL WILLIAMSON]

As far as I know, lo doesn't do anything.  Any traffic 
would be on eth0, eth1, etc.  I've played around with 
lo, and there has never been traffic on it.

Hi Folks

If I uncomment the lo part of my config file
I assume it'll graph just fine.

Why would I want to do that?

Would it tend to show me if the linux box itself
was being used to surf with instead of just sitting
there doing it's appointed job of gatewaying for the lan?

Is it considered uninteresting information - hence it's
commented out by default in the config file?


Best regards,
 Cliff
