I monitor a lot of various Baystack switches and unless I am misunderstanding the question, find that the --no-down option seems to work fine. I put it right before the --output statement.
As to #2 I have not been able to do that either. I would be grateful for a solution. -Rob- -----Original Message----- From: Brett Charbeneau [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: September 3, 2009 8:17 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [mrtg] Baystack 450's and "Port Name:" Folks, I'd be very grateful for any responses and/or nudges in the right direction! First, specifics: MRTG 2.16.2, Kernel 2.6.26, on Debian 5.0.2, and the device in question supports SNMP v2. I've scoured Google and the archives for this list and have come up empty-handed - please pardon me if this has been asked before! I've got a handful of Baystack 450-24T stacks on my network and I'm running into two issues: 1. Operationally down interfaces continue to be commented out in the config file even though I'm using the "--show-op-down" option with cfgmaker. 2. I can't seem to get what appears in the "Port Name:" field (which can be customized by the admin) to wind up in the config file as "Description". In both cases I'm using a derivation of this command to create the config file: /usr/bin/cfgmaker --global 'WorkDir: /var/www/mrtg/wl-sw-room' \ --global 'Options[_]: bits,growright' --output /var/www/mrtg/cfg/wl-sw-room.cfg [email protected] --show-op-down In the first case, I'm just stumped - "--show-op-down" doesn't seem to work the way I understand it. Should I simply edit the config file manually to remove the hash marks? In the latter case I've tried: --ifref=name --ifdesc=alias --ifdesc=descr --ifdesc=name --ifdesc=ppname --ifdesc=type and invariably the what ends up in the html "Description" field is "BayStack---module-1,-port-1" and not the custom entry in the Baystack's "Port Name:" field. Anyone out there successfully able to get the custom entry to show up in the config file for these switches? -- ******************************************************************** Brett Charbeneau, GSEC Gold, GCIH Gold Network Administrator Williamsburg Regional Library 7770 Croaker Road Williamsburg, VA 23188-7064 (757)259-4044 www.wrl.org (757)259-4079 (fax) [email protected] ******************************************************************** This email is intended only for the addressee.
