[mrtg] Multi Target Syntax (with OID)

[Albert Pang]

I am using MRTG to monitor one OID of several devices.  The target that I am
using is:

Target[device1]:
1.3.6.1.4.1.3199.10.28.1.2.5.0&1.3.6.1.4.1.3199.10.28.1.2.5.0:public at device1
Target[device2]:
1.3.6.1.4.1.3199.10.28.1.2.5.0&1.3.6.1.4.1.3199.10.28.1.2.5.0:public at device2

And it works perfectly.

I would like to generate a extra graph monitoring the 'sum' of this variable
on the two devices.

I read in the MRTG reference guide (under the section called Multi Target
Syntax) that you can 'use several statements in a mathematical expression'
to aggregate values.  The example that is in the documentation is:

Target[ezwf]: 2:public at wellfleetA + 1:public at wellfleetA
                        
Can you do the same thing with OID?  When I tried the following:

Target[all]:
1.3.6.1.4.1.3199.10.28.1.2.5.0&1.3.6.1.4.1.3199.10.28.1.2.5.0:public at device1
+
1.3.6.1.4.1.3199.10.28.1.2.5.0&1.3.6.1.4.1.3199.10.28.1.2.5.0:public at device2

	or

Target[all]: 1.3.6.1.4.1.3199.10.28.1.2.5.0 at device1 +
1.3.6.1.4.1.3199.10.28.1.2.5.0:public at device2 &
1.3.6.1.4.1.3199.10.28.1.2.5.0 at device1 +
1.3.6.1.4.1.3199.10.28.1.2.5.0:public at device2 

I got syntax error from MRTG.  Is it supposed to work?

Thanks.
