[mrtg] mrtg-ping-probe

If you are using routers2, then it identifies the use of mrtg-ping-probe
and will default the graph to a 'floating bar' (range) type.  This means
you will get a floating bar area, covering the min->max time range as
output by the mrtg-ping-probe plugin.

 

So, if your ping probe is giving a minimum RTT of 10ms and max RTT of
50ms, then it will give a floating bar between 10ms and 50ms.

 

For an example of this, see the demo server on 

 

http://www.steveshipway.org/cgi-bin/routers2.pl?rtr=ping%2Fping.cfg&xgty
pe=d&if=ping-corona

 

If for some reason you do not want this style but prefer a separate Min
and Max line, you can use

 

Routers.cgi*GraphStyle[xxxx]: normal

 

Which will cause it to not use the ping-probe defaults set.

We are using mrtg-ping-probe but get graphs with the baseline moved up
into the graph.  

For instance, instead of the graph starting on zero, it starts on say,
30ms.  Another graph will have it start on 10ms and so on.
