Dear Javier,
Thanks a lot for your reply!
I'me trying to read the source code to understand how
the AVERAGE value is calculated (shown in the bottom
of the interface traffic performance graph). Could you
plase tell us how or where can we find the definition
of the "inputbits" or "input" in traffic.inc.php. How
the "inputbits" and "outputbits" average is
calculated/defined, what is its infomation source:
"AREA:inputbits#00CC00:'Inbound '",
"GPRINT:inputbits:MAX:'Max\:%8.2lf %sbps'",
"GPRINT:inputbits:AVERAGE:'Average\:%8.2lf %sbps'",
"GPRINT:inputbits:LAST:'Last\:%8.2lf %sbps\\n'",
$opts_DEF[]="CDEF:inputbits=input,UN,input,input,IF,8,*";
$opts_DEF[]="CDEF:outputbits=output,UN,output,output,IF,8,*";
What is the value of "input" and "output"? And where
can I find the definition of rrdtool_get_def?
$opts_DEF =
rrdtool_get_def($data,array("input","output"));
To may knowledge, jffnms store every collected value
in the RRD file as shown in the following command
output capture. What function jffnms has used to
consolidate/calculate a single AVERAGE value (over a
arbitary period, e.g. a week, a month or an year)? If
you're too busy to give detail info, could you please
tell us where can we find the answer? Thansk!
debian-test1:/opt/jffnms/rrd# rrdtool info

rrd_version = "0001"

average
We use the average function in RRDTool to do that, so
is no really
ours.
But if your graph have some down time (it will count
as 0 for the
average).
