I want to average throughput on my routers for particular time periods. Namely, I want to average throughput during operating hours.
Towards this end, I have configured mrtg to collect data only during these hours (eg, 8am to 9pm). However, it appears to me that the average throughput calculated by mrtg uses 24 hours/day, regardless of the number of hours per day that mrtg is actually collecting data. Is my assumption correct? If so, how can I configure mrtg to average throughput based on the number of hours per day that I am actually collecting data? I have looked at the mrtg docs online, but have not found a conclusive answer, although I did find this: "withzeroes Normally we ignore all values which are zero when calculating the average transfer rate on a line. If this is not desirable use this option." Is this saying that those times during which I am not collecting data (and thus, the data is 0) are actually NOT included in the avg? Thanks for any help that anyone can give.
