MRTG

First you need to install snmpd from ports

Then install MRTG from ports

cd /usr/ports/net-mgmt/mrtg
make install

Make web server dirs ready

mkdir /usr/local/www/apache22/data/stats
chown mrtg /usr/local/www/apache22/data/stats

Check your interface index

snmpwalk -v 2c -c read2user localhost IP-MIB::ipAdEntIfIndex
IP-MIB::ipAdEntIfIndex.78.47.207.147 = INTEGER: 1
IP-MIB::ipAdEntIfIndex.127.0.0.1 = INTEGER: 2

(See the 1 after the IP 78.47.207.147. This is what we want to use in the config file next)

Make a simple config file (/usr/local/etc/mrtg/mrtg.cfg) to begin with

WorkDir: /usr/local/www/apache22/data/stats
Target[confighell]: 1:read2user@localhost
MaxBytes[confighell]: 10240000
Title[confighell]: Traffic on Confighell
PageTop[confighell]: <H1>Stats for Confighell</H1>

(See the link between Target[confighell]: 1:* and the index we just found before)

Start MRTG daemon

echo mrtg_daemon_enable="YES" >> /etc/rc.conf
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/mrtg_daemon start
