<br><font size=2 face="Arial">MRTG has a so-called "threshold checking"
functionality where it can call an external program when a monitored value
crosses arbitrary boundaries (see http://oss.oetiker.ch/mrtg/doc/mrtg-reference.en.html).
Such a program might well sends passive check results to Nagios (see http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/2_0/passivechecks.html)
so that it can handle the notification part.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="Arial">However, that's all that I'm aware of about
integrating those 2 products together; Which I find too limited. For beter
integration, I would suggest you to use something like Nagiosgrapher together
with the check_snmp nagios plugin. In such a scenario, Nagios does the
SNMP monitoring using the check_snmp plugin then sends performance data
(see http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/2_0/perfdata.html) that Nagiosgrapher
stores in rrd files. In addition, Nagiosgrapher adds links in the Nagios
interface to rrd graphs (see demo here http://nagios-demo.netways.de/ -
use guest as login and passwd)</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="Arial">Here in my company we set up Nagios &
MRTG about 2 years ago and are now moving to Nagiosgrapher because of this
bad integration.</font>
