[mrtg] Re: Newbie Question

[Matthews,Rebecca * (RMATTHEW)]

1)  Keep in mind your weekly graphs are 30 min averages, where as your
hourly graphs are 5 min averages, so the graphs will not necessarily reflect
the exact same numbers for highs and lows.  It looks like you only have a
few points that are above 10k, the rest of the time your traffic is very
little, so your averages for the weekly graph will be lower than your
hourly.

2) It will show the traffic that passes thru the interface.

Hope this helps!

Howdy,

First of all, this is a great tool! Now, the questions:

- I've been running mrtg on my web server for the last 24 hours, running
snmpd on the same. Currently the Daily chart shows a Max Out of 38.0 kB/s,
while the Weekly chart only shows 12.7kB/s. Shouldn't each chart reflect the
highest transfer rates of the lower charts?

- Secondly, is the traffic that is reported by the snmpd daemon the traffic
that actually passes thru the host, or is it reporting traffic on the
interface? In other words, if I had five hosts all running snmp on the same
network, would the numbers be identical for all five hosts, or would they
show the traffic thru the interface?
