125000000 bytes (your MaxBytes value)  * 8 (bits per byte) = 1Gigabit.
Increase your MaxBytes value.

	Dear Sir,
	I am using SNMPv2. Configuration of the link is as follows:-
	 
	Target[routers]: 1:public at 192.168.1.x:::::2 +
2:public at 192.168.1.x:::::2
	+ 3:public at 192.168.1.x:::::2
	MaxBytes[routers]: 125000000
	Title[routers]: Total Speed for the Routers
	 
	But it shows the traffic only upto 1 Gb. Whereas traffic of my
link is more than 1Gb.
	So, plz help me. can you have any idea that how can i use SNMP
v3.
	Thanks & Regards
	Reena

		It's in the FAQ.  You need to use SNMPv2 or SNMPv3
because SNMPv1 only uses 16bit counters, which roll over in the polling
window if you have 1Gb traffic.  See the MRTG manual for how to specify
SNMPv2 - you add ':::::2' to the end of the Target definition.

		Dear all,
		Thanks Eric, Thanks Daniel . Now its working properly
with snmp v2 . problem was in MaxBytes setting. By MaxBytes setting
125000000 i can get traffic upto 1000 megabits.
		MaxBytes[routers]: 125000000
		One thing more, we can aggregate more than 5 interfaces.
		Now can anybody suggest  me how to get more than 1000
megabits traffic on the link? Is it only depend on MaxBytes setting or i
have to do some more configuration. what will be MaxBytes setting?
		 
		Thanks in advance

		Reena,
		
		In addition to what Daniel stated I jut wanted to add -
Are you sure
		the MaxBytes setting is correct? 125000000 is only 1000
megabits or
		depending on how your conversion (kibi vs kilo) 953
megabits.
