awesome.Thank you very much.......I wasnt running the cfgmaker tool again to 
give me the correct link utilization...On your suggestion i did and it works 
fine now....

regards
Venkat...

If your link is a 64kb link, and you change the "bandwidth" statement in your 
router config,
the next time you run cfgmaker against the device, it will generate correct 
MRTG configs
with the right MaxBytes statement so that your percentages will be correct.  
But you *do*
have to re-run cfgmaker for it to pick up the change, it won't magically know 
that you've
changed the bandwidth statement on the router.

Thank you..Yes i am using a cisco router......so it means probably that in the 
ifspeed OID on this cisco 2811 router the speed was 193kbps.......so how do i 
get the percentage then

I have seen in other posts that diving the OID helps for eg:

OID / 64kbps(After i change the bandwidth)...will the graph change too if  give 
this in the config file...or should i use the option[xx].dorelpercent

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...

MARGIN-TOP:0px;MARGIN-BOTTOM:0px;}

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.........








Out
70.2 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
