There is a data-collection plugin for MRTG called mrtg-ping-probe that returns 
the min/max latencies (and jitter if you want); if you are using Routers2 with 
MRTG then it has a special mode to handle this which graphs it as a floating 
bar.  You can get the plugin from many places; I think it is in the MRTG 
contrib folder, and the Routers2 extras folder.

Having said that, Smokeping does the job far better, though it is a different 
package.  If you have alot of these you want to monitor, it may be a better 
choice.  If you have a single latency to monitor and many other MRTG metrics 
already in place, then maybe use MRTG for the latency graph.

Subject: [mrtg] Monitoring latency and jitter

Is it possible to monitor latency and jitter with MRTG?  If so, does anyone 
have any pointers as how to do this?


TIA
