I'm setting up MRTG to monitor all the traffic between my server and the rest of the network.
I started out with SNMP, but was unable to make it monitor my dialup line, and someone suggest I use ipaccount instead. Once I got that working, I decided to switch my eth0 monitor to ipaccount as well, and that's where my problem is. I currently have both SNMP and ipaccount set up in MRTG, but I get quite different values from them and have no idea which one is accurate. Here's one of the more extreme cases: From SNMP: Current In: 4118.0 B/s Current Out: 6316.0 B/s From ipaccount: Current In: 3612.0 B/s Current Out: 5904.0 B/s Here's the relevant bits from my mrtg.cfg file: Target[eth0ipac]: `/var/lib/mrtg/ipaccount 5m eth0` Options[eth0ipac]: nopercent,absolute MaxBytes[eth0ipac]: 12500000 Target[eth0]: 3:[EMAIL PROTECTED]: Options[eth0]: nopercent MaxBytes[eth0]: 12500000 And from my ipac-ng/rules.conf: incoming eth0|ipac~o|eth0|all|| incoming eth0|ipac~fi|eth0|all|| outgoing eth0|ipac~i|eth0|all|| outgoing eth0|ipac~fo|eth0|all|| Any help would be appreciated.
