[mrtg] Re: .cfg file issue

[Jeroen.vanGeem at BAKERNET.com]

All,

Tnx for your help but I figured out what the problem was (and I feel
terrible stupid about it).

In MRTG VLAN1 of the switch = graph1, and interface1 = graph2. 
So instead of looking at graph 25 for interface 24 (the testing interface),
I was looking all the time at graph 24 that corresponds to interface 23...
:-(

To be short:
Removing the '#' in the .cfg will work, but when testing, make sure you are
looking at the right graphs.   ;-)

Tnx again for your time!


Jeroen

Jeroen,

Look at the third line: '### * has a speed of 0 which makes no sense'
My guess is that your switch ports do not have a (fixed) speed set. If
you query them with SNMP you will get back a zero. Since MRTG (and
configmaker) needs the speed of a port for its maxbytes value, the cfg
file can not be generated. To solve this you can either set the speed on
your switch ports and rerun cfgmaker or write a script that removes the
'# ' in front of the relevant lines in your config and puts in a
realistic maxbytes value.

HTH,

Jan.

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
