Zeeshan,

The error being returned to you is fairly self explanatory. The "Target" line 
has no idea what grep is, you'll need to put:

--
snmpwalk 192.168.1.1 public .1.3.6.1.4.1.3493.2.4.1.1.12.1.3 | grep -c "= 9"
--

Into a script (a simple shell script would suffice) and then adjust your 
Target line to read something like:

--
Target[cmonline]: `/path/to/your/script`
--

MRTG should then be able to understand the output and graph the data passed to 
it accordingly. For information on "External Monitoring Scripts", refer to the 
user friendly MRTG manual (in the doc/mrtg2/ directory).


Regards.
