Getting PowerConnect 5324 switch load/usage stats ?
Hi all,
i have a running PowerConnect 5324 for which i would like :
1) use MRTG (or RRDTOOL...) to get statistics of bandwidth usage on each port.
2) use MRTG (or RRDTOOL...) to get statistics of cpu / ram load...
how should i proceed to monitor this swtich ?
thanks
Florent

The MRTG setup took about 15 minutes.
A good resource would be to start at the MRTG website (google it).
There is plenty of documentation on how to do it.
good luck

Run
# cfgmaker --global 'WorkDir: /var/www/mrtg' \
--global 'Options[_]: bits,growright' \
--output /[path to mrtg files]/mrtg/cfg/mrtg.cfg
public@[device ip]
This will create a mrtg.cfg file after cfgmaker performs a snmp walk on the device.
That file will hold all the OID information for each port/device etc. You will then
have to create your nagios configuration from that.
I can't really help with Nagios since I've never set it up before.
