To the best of my knowledge, all such plugins are designed to alert only when traffic exceeds a certain threshold, not when it drops below. I THINK MRTG itself has some built-in notification options that may be settable for when traffic drops below a threshold, and I wouldn't think it would be a terribly complicated matter to modify an existing plugin to alert for a floor threshold (assuming you know some basic programing at least), but I don't believe there are any existing plugins that have that functionality. ----------------------------------------------- Israel Brewster Computer Support Technician Frontier Flying Service Inc. 5245 Airport Industrial Rd Fairbanks, AK 99709 (907) 450-7250 x293 -----------------------------------------------
