I've set up MRTG and got it running on a 4.5 RC2 box, and it's reporting activity on a Cisco Router just fine. So far so good. :) Now, I have another FreeBSD box running as a router/gateway, and would like to have MRTG monitor and report on that. So, I need an SNMP Daemon to run on the gateway server (if I'm not totally on the wrong track!) In the ports I see "/usr/ports/net/net-snmp" which includes an "snmpd.sh". This looks promising, but I'm unsure of myself as this is the first time I am delving into these low-level protocols.... Before I go installing the wrong thing, can someone please confirm that I seem to be on the right track? Specifically, if you have set up MRTG to monitor a FreeBSD box I'd love to here how you sorted the SNMP Daemon on the FreeBSD box. Regards, Patrick O'Reilly.
