[mrtg] graph Cisco total users

[Mir Hafeez Ali]

If you are in an unix environment try to finger the users from your router
and grep the total no. of users.

Example:

finger @a.b.c.d | grep -c Vi

I have been following this with great interest.  I too would like to 
collect the same or similiar information.  I wanted to collect the 
PPPoVPDN information off the router for each user.  I tried doing and 
snmpwalk, but was not able to identify the OID for this information.  I am 
not the best at reading the SNMP.  I talked to Cisco but I got the 
impression the information is not is SNMP.

What we did was write expect and PHP scripts to collect the information 
and put it into mysql and generate reports from there.  It is not 100% 
accurate, but is better than nothing
