Introduction

From the MRTG website:
The Multi Router Traffic Grapher (MRTG) is a tool to monitor the traffic load on network-links. MRTG generates HTML pages containing graphical images which provide a LIVE visual representation of this traffic. Check http://www.ee.ethz.ch/stats/mrtg/ for an example. MRTG is based on Perl and C and works under UNIX and Windows NT. MRTG is being successfully used on many sites around the net.

You should have Windows IIS installed, or some other web server you're familiar with. Substitute D:\InetPub\wwwroot\ for the wwwroot of your IIS installation.

Follow the guide at: http://people.ee.ethz.ch/~oetiker/webtools/mrtg/mrtg-nt-guide.html

Remove the line: WorkDir: c:\www\mrtg from the bottom of Make the folder D:\InetPub\wwwroot\MRTG Create a new virtual folder in IIS and point it to D:\InetPub\wwwroot\MRTG Browse to http://127.0.0.1/MRTG to see your traffic logs.

Unix

Follow the guide at: http://people.ee.ethz.ch/~oetiker/webtools/mrtg/mrtg-unix-guide.html

SNMPOIDs

If you want to monitor something other than bytes in and out, you must also know the SNMPOID of what you want to monitor.
Here is a listing of SNMPOIDs for the DD-WRT firmware.
