I am sorry...I confused you...the rrd "gauge" is ok, but I was trying to point out the mib variables are counters which wrap...and yes..you do need to take the difference of the last and current readings.

Cc: '[email protected]' Subject: RE: [rrd-users] little quest Im first use Counter , but does not work properly, because that variable, not ever increment his size, this variable is the difference between the actual value and the last value obtained in the last 5 minutes ..., and I think that the counter is for variables that ever increment his size?? even i see in MRTG the use of gauge ... It is possible? Thanks A lot I attach the graph was made the rrdtool, in this graph it talk abou 30 MB, and the PVC of my router have the size of a T! (1.5 MB). _________________________________________ Sebastian Arias Infraestructure & Technologies AT&T Latin America, Argentina Phone: [5411]5288-0173 - Fax: [5411]5288-0408 -----Mensaje original----- De: Logg, Connie A.

Also, when I tried to match my data to the rrd output, I would not match it either. Upon inquiring, I was told that the rrdtools interpolates the values for the binning. If I am wrong, please someone corrct me.
