This URL is dead. I too am starting to use MRTG for tracking my PM's
(have been using pmwho and gnuplot). Anyone want to post their particular
mrtg.cfg section for their PMs? Here's what I have so far:
Target[pm3]: 1.3.6.1.2.1.2.1.0&1.3.6.1.2.1.2.1.0:ro-comm@pm3.vcnet.com - 1
MaxBytes[pm3]: 46
Title[pm3]: pm3 ports in use
PageTop[pm3]: pm3 ports
Options[pm3]: gauge absolute
YLegend[pm3]: modems used
ShortLegend[pm3]: no
Am I missing anything?
