Hi,

I'm running 6509s with CAT OS and need MRTG to use the port name as  
the description since the description itself comes up blank for  
individual ports. if I put --desc=catname in the config maker there  
is the following: ERROR: Invalid value for --ifdesc: 'catname'

I know that mrtg pulls the info from snmp as it shows up in the table:

<TABLE>
    <TR><TD>System:</TD>     <TD>routername</TD></TR>
    <TR><TD>Maintainer:</TD> <TD>Me</TD></TR>
    <TR><TD>Description:</TD><TD>  </TD></TR>
    <TR><TD>ifType:</TD>     <TD>ethernetCsmacd (6)</TD></TR>
    <TR><TD>ifName:</TD>     <TD>4/4</TD></TR>
    <TR><TD>Port Name:</TD>  <TD>router21</TD></TR>
    <TR><TD>Max Speed:</TD>  <TD>1000.0 Mbits/s</TD></TR>
</TABLE>

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
