MRTG doesn't look at the clock rate, it looks at the ifSpeed SNMP OID;
to change that, on a Cisco, use the "bandwidth" statement in the interface
configuration section.  If it's not a Cisco, you'll need to consult your
vendor documentation to figure out how to change the value reported
by the ifSpeed OID.

Thank you very much...But why is it taking a T1 link bandwidth when i specified 
the clockrate to be 64kbps??......I know that i can edit the cfg file later and 
set the MAX bytes to   to 64kbps but i thought MRTG would calculate the 
interface B.W automatically when i polled the router...

193kbytes = 1536kbps (x8)
70.2kbps / 1536kbps = .0045
.0045 = 4.5%

Subject: [mrtg] MRTG bandwidth error



Hello everyone i have found MRTG reporting a small error on my 
bandwidth.......I configured a small campus enterprise network with collapsed 
core design(in a lab environment).........I used a frame relay connection to 
connect to my branch office..I have specified the clock rate to be 
64kbps.....But when i was collecting the interface traffic from my enterprise 
edge MRTG was reporting the max traffic below the graph to be 70.2 kbps....How 
is it possible?Because the serial link was supposed to be at 64kbps(the clock 
rate which i gave)......This was the outbound traffic  MRTG reported.........



Out70.2 kb/s (4.5%)  37.8 kb/s (2.4%)  63.0 kb/s (4.1%)  
The max speed MRTG gave of the interface was 193.0kbytes.Also kindly please 
explain what the percentage represents...I have been pulling my hair and doing 
all sorts of calculation to find out what the percentages exactly means and 
what is it exactly representing

Regards
Venkat
