That assumes the switch it's plugged in to is of some merit ;)

 

I think the X55e has got SNMP support its just that no one seems to be
able to get the MIBs for it, so maybe the core ones will work.

 

Would you mind sharing your knowledge on how you went about doing it ?

We monitor our Firebox interfaces using MRTG -- SNMP is included in
Fireware -- however those units are a bit larger (not the Edge X55e
devices you mention, but rather the Core and Peak models). That being
said, if the X55e doesn't support SNMP (it might -- I'd have to check)
out of the box you could always monitor the other interface that is
connected (so instead of monitoring LAN1 on the device, monitor the
switch port it's plugged into).

Does anyone have any experience of monitoring the bandwidth usage of a
watchguard unit via something like MRTG or similar ?

I want to know the bandwidth usage at a few of our sites so that we can
upgrade the lines. They are serviced office units which inevitable means
that no one knows whats going on and the management company don't keep
bandwidth usage stats, so it's up to us to sell ourselves an upgrade.

I've had a look around but there's nothing on the web that I can see
that might help. The units are X55e ones, nothing fancy.
