[mrtg] Re: Bandwidth Monitoring

I'm guessing the pipe is 6 mega BITS per second, and your graph is in BYTES
per second, so that may be part of the problem. But your graph shows a peak
of around 36K bytes, which, if we multiply by 8 bits/byte works out to about
.3 mega bits, so that's still off by a factor of 10. Does the max speed on
the page show correctly (i.e. "6.0 Mbits/s")? I believe that's used in the
calculations for the graph.

Subject: [mrtg] Bandwidth Monitoring

I have MRTG set up on a Win2000 machine to monitor 2 Cisco Routers (a
3640 and a 4500) along with 4 switches (a baynetworks 350T, and 3 Cisco
5505s).
 
I cannot seem to figure out why the machine is reporting such low
results (I have attached a link to a copy of one graph). This graph is
the interface of a 6 meg pipe that I know atleast 3 meg are being used
constantly. Does anyone have any ideas what may not be configured
correctly?
