Hey,
I want to get informations about the traffic of the port 1 from my cisco switch which understands SNMP. So I installed Nagios, the nagios plugins, snmpd, snmp and mrtg. I use the check_mrtgtraf command in my switch.cfg to do this.
After installing mrtg like described at http://oss.oetiker.ch/mrtg/doc/mrtg-unix-guide.en.html I also used cfgmaker to get my mrtg.cfg file.
This file looks like this:
# Created by
# ./cfgmaker --global "WorkDir: /etc/mrtg" --global "Options[_]: bits,growright" --output /etc/mrtg/cfg/mrtg.cfg 172.17.1.2
### Global Config Options
# for UNIX
# WorkDir: /home/http/mrtg
# or for NT
# WorkDir: c:\mrtgdata
### Global Defaults
# to get bits instead of bytes and graphs growing to the right
# Options[_]: growright, bits
EnableIPv6: no
WorkDir: /etc/mrtg
Options[_]: bits,growright

As the WorkDir says, the log-Files created from mrtg should be in the directory /etc/mrtg but the only files I find there are three pictures from mrtg.
My Nagios verion is 3.2.0, my nagios plugins version is 1.4.14 and my mrtg version is 2.16.3.
So what did I do wrong??
Thanks & Regards
