MRTG and Cacti are different products, and may use different Nagios plugins.
MRTG creates a website, puts the logs in that website's directory, and
dynamically creates graphs based on the log data. On my Ubuntu
Nagios/MRTG machine, the logs & web pages are in /var/www/mrtg.
Each port gets its own log, so for instance on my switch 10.5.10.4,
port 15, the log file is:
nagios@itweb1:/var/www/mrtg$ ls -l 10.5.10.4_15.log
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 74442 2011-05-04 15:40 10.5.10.4_15.log
and the service bandwidth check in Nagios is:
define service{
use generic-service ; Inherit values from a template
host_name switch-CoreA
service_description Port15
check_command
check_local_mrtgtraf!/var/www/mrtg/10.5.10.4_15.log!AVG!1000000,1000000!5000000,5000000!10
}
I haven't used Cacti, so can't offer tips there.
