MRTG Support
Multi Router Traffic Grapher, or MRTG, is a tool to monitor the traffic load on network links. MRTG generates HTML pages containing GIF images which provide a live visual representation of this traffic.
MRTG client support of Ikarus NMS uses the package provided by JRobin (http://www.jrobin.org/utilities/MRTGdemo.html). To use the MRTG, select MRTG under the Utilities menu.
Using MRTG
To implement MRTG, extract the required files in a network server with java support and initialize it by executing the following command: “java –jar MRTG-server-1.4.0.jar”.
Using MRTG
- After the successful MRTG server initialization, in the Utilities menu select MRTG. The built in MRTG client will be invoked and a prompt appears requesting the MRTG server IP address.
- Type the MRTG server IP address. Upon successful connection nodes can be inserted in the monitoring list.
- On each node insertion the user will be presented with a list of all available interfaces. The user may select one or more interfaces to monitor.
