cpu monitoring is very easy.

Yes, the mib is the same for all IOS products, depending on version, not
hardware. The difficulty is knowing whether to use the ancient
lsystem.cpu5sec OID (officially deprecated since IOS 10.3!) or one of
the new cpmCPUTotal5sec or cpmCPUTotal5secR oids.
Since I assume there is very little IOS 10.2 or 9.27 still running in
the wild, my template at www.austinnetworkdesign.com/mrtg/cpu.template
queries the box and figures out which of the CISCO-PROCESS-MIB values to
use.

first, grab the v1 mibs from Cisco (SNMP_Utils.pm can't parse v2 mibs).
Drop them in the /usr/share/snmp/mibs directory with all of your other
mibs.
Second, add the following mibs to your LoadMibs line in your mrtg.cfg
file. The parser will only accept one LoadMibs variable, so if you have
one for some other purpose, just append these.
LoadMibs: /usr/share/snmp/mibs/CISCO-SMI-V1SMI.my
/usr/share/snmp/mibs/CISCO-TC-V1SMI.my
/usr/share/snmp/mibs/CISCO-PROCESS-MIB-V1SMI.my
/usr/share/snmp/mibs/CISCO-MEMORY-POOL-MIB-V1SMI.my
then, using the cfgmaker template you copied from my website, run a
command like:
/usr/local/mrtg-2/bin/cfgmaker --host-template=cpu.template
--directory=2600 --ifref=name --ifdesc=alias --output=the2600.cfg

You can then include the config in your main mrtg.cfg file with:
Include: /path/to/the2600.cfg
to do this same thing on Windows, just change the paths from
/usr/share/snmp/mibs to wherever you keep your mibs...
