 |
|
MRTG is a 3rd Party software program for monitoring Ethernet devices using SNMP. The MRTG discovery script incorrectly reports the Maxbyte variable as 0 when in fact it should be set according to the type of connection T1 = 193000, 56K = 7000, Ethernet = 1250000 (max bits per connection divided by 8 for bytes). The MaxBytes value will be used by MRTG to decide whether it got a valid response from the router. You need to manually enter in a value here.
Below is a working configuration file for a Pocket MultiCom. More information about the MRTG software can be found at http://ee-staff.ethz.ch/~oetiker/webtools/mrtg/
