Currently I have setup ucd-snmpd from the ports collection, also I installed
mrtg from ports. I would like to monitor the traffic on the ethernet card,
more or less totals in and out. ( /usr/port/net/ntop -- has security
problems? )
When I use the configmaker I don't get any errors, but when I check my mrtg
generated files I see a huge input, 250kb. MRTG says its monitoring rl0,
which is my ethernet device.
But using netstat -w 100 I only see an input of around 25kbs. What could be
causing the confusion with the input errors? Do I have snmpd setup
incorrectly? Has anyone seen any problems like this?
-----mrtg config----
cfgmaker --global 'WorkDir: /home/httpd/mrtg' \
--global 'Options[_]: bits,growright' \
--output /home/mrtg/cfg/mrtg.cfg \
