[mrtg] Re: MRTG with ADSL

[Cadena, Carlos]

Hi Alejandro,

Are you trying to monitor "traffic"? If this is the case, maybe you can
think to set the monitoring point where the is a inter-connection from the
PSTN (The ADSL link) to the LAN (whre end-equipments are located). It could
be in a port of a switch.

We are doing something like that in the Dufferin-Pell School Board.

if you're referring to targeting an ADSL modem, i'm not sure which 
modems allow snmp. The Cisco 675 allows snmp
( http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/pcat/675.htm ). If you're 
using a dsl modem and something like a LinkSys DSL Router, I think you 
can mrtg-up the Linksys router.

we utilize a cisco 7206 atm router for both verizon and bell south adsl 
services. nothing else is on the router. i've just simply mrtg'd all the 
interfaces. the down side is if you have several hundred dsl interfaces, 
then the .cfg file is/can get rather cumbersome. dsl users, in some 
cases, switch providers on a regular basis trying to get the best deals 
or whatever, so remember,  you'll have to re-up ./cfgmaker to account 
for the changes or manually comment them out. the really bad thing is 
with that many interfaces, you get tons/kilo's of files in a single 
directory and it gets hard to control.
 
for just a simple parse of the router i use, ./cfgmaker --global 
"Options[_]: bits" string at xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx >> adsl.cfg,

that grabs them all.

good luck
