Are you trending the MIB-II InOctets and OutOctets? If so, maybe the
vendor has their own port counters in their enterprise mibs. Some
vendors use their own mibs over MIB-II standards. If you're not using
MIB-II OIDs, what OIDs are you using to measure traffic? What version of
MRTG are you using?

Hi everyone,

We are monitoring traffic on a link.  On our side of the link, we
monitor an atm switch and a Juniper router involved in the connection. 
>From the other side traffic graphs are generated by monitoring a
Juniper
switch.  So traffic graphs for both sides' had been identical.  However
as of last Thursday our graphs show a sharp decrease in traffic (which
is inaccurate), while the other side's graphs show traffic as usual.  I
contacted our network administrator, he said nothing has changed on our
side.

Anyone willing to shed some light on this phenomenon?

TIA

- Ivette
