nsclient++ and network counters

[Assaf Flatto]

Hello List 

i must admit - my understanding of Windows is limited , now i need to find a way to monitor network 
usage on a windows machine , i tried the snmp route and got to the understanding ( from googling 
the subject ) that the way MS is implementing SNMP is the reason why i can not get what i want ,so 
now i am trying to do the same with the COUNTER option on the check_nt  .

i have the following check ;
check_nt -H x.x.x.x -p 1248 -v COUNTER -l "\\Local Area Connection\\% ","Network Useage is %.2f"
the output is :
Network Useage is 0.00 | 'Network Useage is %.2f'=0.000000%;0.000000;0.000000;

but i know that the answer is wrong as i am watching the network meter on the windows machine itself 
and see it at 25% .

I suspect that my query is wrong  - i assume the label , does anyone know what i should be using to 
get the correct query ?

Thanks
