[mrtg] Re: Monitoring VLANs on CISCO

I mean I can see the incoming and outgoing traffic on the ethernet interface.
Now, I'd like to be able to monitor on the same way the traffic for each 
Vlan, or even better each port.
Each port is connected to a different subnetwork, so I could monitor all of 
them.
Thanks for your help

David
