[mrtg] Re: Sending SNMP Traps from MRTG Treshold Breaches....Help !!

[Cornwell, Eric J.]

Hello,
I have an W2K box that we are running MRTG 2.9.25 on and I would like to do
what was mentioned below.  We frequently have a couple of wan connections
that use all the bandwidth available.  Sending traps would be a great way
for us to monitor it but I have no idea how to implement it.
Thanks!
Eric

SETENV lines in the cfg file. The shell script then contains the snmptrap
command and parameters to forward onto an snmpd host. I can send specifics
but it was actually very easy.
