Hello MRTG expert,
I just installed Mrtg-2.9.17 on my windows NT (ip 192.168.100.5)and quite working fine. Now i want to monitor my Cisco router (ip 192.168.100.1) and isn;t working. I already go to the main website of the MRTG and it's very complex and not so detailed. Do i need to configure anything on the router?

i aready use this command to cfgmaker and still not work.

perl cfgmaker public@192.168.100.1 --global "WorkDir: c:\www\mrtg" -- output mrtg.cfg

I would really appreciateif you could provide a detailed information how to configure it.

Thanks and i'll wait for your response.

MRTG depend on SNMP. Please check your router, have you enabled SNMP server on it.

yes, MRTG will monitor SNMP responces from all Network devices like Switch or Router where its enabled.
Also Perl has to be installed & configured to make MRTG run.
The installation for NT is pretty easy & clear in the site.

Sorry forget one thing, use a valid IP (one give to Router by your ISP) not invalid (NAT) IP.

This might be overly simplistic, but at least my (linux) version of cfgmaker wants the following syntax:

cfgmaker [options] community@address

So try

perl cfgmaker --global "WorkDir: c:\www\mrtg" --output mrtg.cfg public@192.168.100.1
