[mrtg] Plotting multiple values in same graph

[lokesh.khanna at accelonafrica.com]

Thanks for your reply

1.	I think I didn't put my question correctly here. If MaxByte is
set to 10 MByte, then I want to see a line of 10 Mbyte in my graph. For
me this is the total bandwidth available - 10 mbps.

2.	I set below things in mrtg.cfg

ThreshMaxI[XX]:80%
ThreshMaxO[XX]:80%
And I don't see any red line in my graph for 80 % threshold. 

Regards,
Lokesh

1.
Surely this is just (maxbandwidth-actualvalue) - so, if your normal
graph gives you a red 'max' line and the actual values, you're just
trying to see the same graph only upside-down?  You can achieve this by
using a calculation on the Target line -
  Target[x]: 125000 - n:community at device
  MaxBytes[x]: 125000

2.
If you are using the routers2 frontend, you get this already.  Define a
Threshold using ThreshMaxI[x]:80% (for example) and it will appear on
the graph as a horizontal line.  There is no way to do it using native
MRTG that I know of (although I may be out of date)

Or, am I misunderstanding you, and you want to have one line for
(in+out)?  If so, this is still possible using the method above although
you'd need a more complex Target definition line.
