<body>Hi Alex<BR>
<BR>
This makes perfectly sense. Thanks a lot for the information. I am using OIDView, so I found the OIDs you refer to right away.<BR>
<BR>
BTW: These values are Octets. Can I use that value directly for graphing; meaning is 1 octet the same as 1 bit/s?<BR>
<BR>
Thanks again.<BR>
