Use the --no-down switch in your cfgmaker command to tell it to manage all ports on the device.
________________________________________ Hello Kevin, Thank you for your reply! I managed to get the service running correctly, and now that aspect is working great. And I looked in the MRTG.CFG file and found that it appears that the switches were, for the most part, configured somewhat, but that everything was completely commented out for some reason. Some of the ports were commented out as they are disabled (by us administrators), but I still need all ports to be monitored whether disabled or not. Also, I am wondering if I will get a separate HTML file for each of these devices, or if I will simply get one massive HTML page. We would much rather have separate HTML files for each device, if that is possible, then we will build our own front-end menu to select the device we wish to monitor. Sincerely, Bjorgen ________________________________________ From: Kevin Stone [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, March 28, 2007 8:01 PM To: Bjorgen T. Eatinger Subject: Re: [mrtg] Wow--This is Difficult to Setup! On Windows I've never tried to run it as a service. Typically I set up a batch file to be run from the Task Scheduler every 5 minutes for 23 hours and 55 minutes. This has worked for me many times over many years. Alternatively, there are some free/OSS cron clones for Windows. These may work as well. I can't help on the cfgmaker issue, all my devices are and have been Cisco and that works quite well. -Kevin On 3/28/07, Bjorgen T.

I have 2 problems, as follows: 1. Using the cfgmaker script, I cannot get more than just a router added to the MRTG.CFG file. We have a Cisco 1720 router, a Cisco PIX 506e (which we probably don't need to monitor), and six 3COM 24-port switches. Of most interest are the six 3COM switches. How do we get all of these devices in the configuration file? 2. Even with the one device (the Cisco router) correctly configured in the MRTG.CFG file, we cannot get the updates to work reliably. I don't see much activity happening. I finally stopped the MRTG service for a few hours, then started it again, and then saw activity, but then left the service running again for several hours, and no additional activity occurred. How do we tell the service to run the mrtg script from time to time?
