This is an entirely different problem. The 32 bit counters of snmp v1
are not enough and they roll over at 104 Mb/s more or less. 

The effect I was talking about is above 2 Gb/s, and using sid's mrtg
recompiled for woody neatly solves it (just be careful as some
cfgmaker options are different and also indexmaker is more picky about
what's in the config file). In fact, the data files were ok, just
rateup was not able to make the graph for it. 

Thanks to Eric for providing me the recompiled version.

Hi

I had the same problem I solved when I used the snmp v2 counter

--snmp-options=:2 

this is also necessary if traffic is more than ~100Mbit/s

Subject: mrtg on STM-16 makes strange graphs



Hello, I'm having a strange problem using mrtg (woody, kept uptodate
with security) to monitor STM-16 interfaces on Cisco hardware. On some
interfaces only (which I could not correlate to a different hardware or
IOS version) I see the data in the log file, I can see the
"min/avg/max" lines below all the images, but the graph is a flat line
at 4b/s. 

I can see this effect on both sides of a link, on 2 different routers,
using 2 different model of line card. 

This link is the only one having this effect at the moment, and it's
actually the only one that has a constant rate above 1.5 Gb/s, with
peaks up to 2.3. 

I've obviously tried to "clear counter" on the interface, to delete
the logs and start from scratch nothing, after a while it's the
same flat graph. Which is actually quite annoying when you have to
point out a link that needs upgrade ;-)

Anyone else ever seen this ?  

These are the first lines of the .log file:

Re: mrtg on STM-16 makes strange graphs

2003-10-15 Thread Erik Wenzel
IIRC this is a variable type overflow which is fixed in mrtg_2.9.29-1
from unstable. I have backported mrtg to woody. Give em a try:
