[mrtg] Re: traffic on cisco switch VLAN interface

[Christopher A. Congdon]

Except that MRTG itself is talking to the VLAN interface. The VLAN
interface is the IP address that you assign to the switch itself.
Obviously, since the switch doesn't have its 'own' Ethernet port, it
uses a virtual one. And, thus, this is the management interface used for
all Telnet, HTTP, and SNMP traffic.

What does the traffic on vlan interface shown by mrtg on cisco switches
means? Since VLAN is only a logical interface, it should not have any
traffic on it.
