We are currently running WUG & MRTG where I'm at.  I don't know if WUG would
be capable of monitoring it...  

However, with MRTG I don't know of a way to have it page/call you.  There is
a way to set it up so that you get an email when bandwidth usage peaks.  I
suppose if you played with it you could get it to alpha page you somehow.  

I don't think it's possible, but if anyone knows of a way I'd love to be
proven wrong.

Heck, I'm still trying to figure out how to monitor radius on a unix server.

Subject: [WhatsUp Forum] basic bandwidth utilization


Hello,

How do I monitor the inbound and outbound utilization of a T-1 Internet
connection and be alerted when it exceeds a certain percent?

Yes, it seemed like a simple goal at first, but despite the manual,
archives, and much trial/error; I've not found a clear solution. I'm using
WUG 7 on Win2K Pro. Routers being monitored are Cisco 2500 series (2501 I
think).


In anticipation of your answers, please consider:

I've been working with ifInNUcastPkts, ifInOctets, ifInUcastPkts, etc. Which
of those OID's are meaningful? Is there an OID for percent utilization of a
link?

I've seen mention of MRTG, but I'd like to stick with one tool (WUG) if
possible. If MRTG is my best option, how can it be integrated with WUG 7? I
don't mind setting up MRTG to supply info to WUG for WUG to act on, but I
don't want to toggle between multiple tools (or worse, manage multiple
paging/notification features of separate programs!)

It seems this should be easy to accomplish with WUG. What am I missing?

Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

John Christian
