[mrtg] How to monitor non SNMP Device using MRTG

[Fehmi Dumani]

You can check this page http://mrtg.meulie.net/doc/mrtg-reference.en.html it helped me set it up for my own  use.

Check the part 
External Monitoring Scripts
		If you want to monitor something which does not provide
data via snmp you can use some external program to do
the data gathering.

		The external command must return 4 lines of output:

		
			
Line 1
					current state of the first variable, normally 'incoming bytes 
count'

				Line 2
					current state of the second variable, normally 'outgoing bytes 
count'

				Line 3
					string (in any human readable format), telling the uptime of the
 target.

				Line 4
					string, telling the name of the target.
