Well.. there is automated script to install mrtg ..

Do following while you are connected to internet :

Code: [Select]

wge*t http://www.web4host.net/tools/install.mrtg.sh
    chmod +x install.mrtg.sh
    ./install.mrtg.sh

then run following command

Code: [Select]


env LANG=C /usr/local/mrtg-2/bin/mrtg/var/www/html/mrtg/core/mrtg.cfg

after that.. to access mrtg just type

http://serverip/mrtg

Dear Ricky ,

  Use the following command ,
Do following while you are connected to internet :
Code:
wge*t http://www.web4host.net/tools/install.mrtg.sh
    chmod +x install.mrtg.sh
    ./install.mrtg.sh


then run following command
Code:

env LANG=C /usr/local/mrtg-2/bin/mrtg/var/www/html/mrtg/core/mrtg.cfg


after that.. to access mrtg just type

http://serverip/mrtg



I run my mrtg perfectly . But  i have two question :

 1) Is this MRTG is for my Machine's IP ?

 2)  suppose i  have a cisco swich .  A client network is connected  via this switch port where it's IP is suppose 192.168.10.2 .  In another port (port 3)  my linux server
is connected where my IP is 192.168.10.3 . In this moment i want to see the Network Traffic or Bandwidth of my client's Network(192.168.10.2) . For this reason is any change is need to make in the above configuration ?


plz help ...........

yes this is your machines traffic graph.

well to see traffic for that particular machine you have to install mrtg on it also.
