Looking fine ...

The '&' is a separator between arguments, so is '?'

This means
   get page         /cgi-bin/14all.cgi
   with argument    log=192.168.101.10_2
   and argument     png=day.s
   and argument     small=1

If you have no 14all.cfg at all: you should have.  If it's in a different
location, you may have to alter the script, move the cfg file or specify
yet another parameter (although I doubt that can be done).

If the command isn't called '14all.cgi' but, for instance, myrouter.cgi,
14all will parse the mrtg.cfg file named 'myrouter.cfg'.

192.168.101.10_2 is a base name.  From this base name all other file
names are generated (basname-day.png, basename-week.png, basename.rrd)
