Hi 
    When you make mrtg.cfg ,it will poll only for active interfaces .
What I would suggest is that if you are using a small switch ,active all the
ports and the generate mrtg.cfg .
My personal suggestion is that you should not monitor all the ports ,monitor
only where servers are connected or other network equipments .
Regards
Bhupesh

I already tried that one, unfortunately without succes.

All inactive interfaces are still being marked with '#' signs, started with
this comment:

### The following interface is commented out because:
### * it is operationally DOWN
### * has a speed of 0 which makes no sense

Try option --show-op-down on your cfgmaker command line.

Hello all,

I'm having a problem creating .cfg files in a Win32 enviroment that includes
all interfaces of a switch. 
But after I created the .cfg file, the inactive ports are all labeled with
'#' signs as inactive. Trying to remove those signs in notepad and
restarting doens't show any graph when I 'activate' a port (connecting to a
pc and start downloading stuff).

Anybody an idea? I tried to work with if statements, but they don't seem to
work either.

Original line:
perl cfgmaker bla at ip_adres --global "WorkDir: c:\inetpub\wwwroot\switch"
--output switch.cfg

Experimental 'If statement' line: :-)
perl cfgmaker --output switch.cfg bla at ip_adres --if-filter=$if_admin &&
$default_iftype --global "WorkDir: c:\inetpub\wwwroot\switch"

It says then: '$default_iftype' is not recognized as an internal or external
command, operable program or batch file.


Any help is appreciated!

Tnx in advance,

Jeroen
