   What is the Multi Router Traffic Grapher?
   
   The Multi Router Traffic Grapher (MRTG) is a tool to monitor the
   traffic load on network-links. MRTG generates HTML pages containing
   graphical images which provide a LIVE visual representation of this
   traffic. Check [55]http://www.ee.ethz.ch/stats/mrtg/ for an example.
   MRTG is based on Perl and C and works under UNIX and Windows NT. MRTG
   is being successfully used on [56]many sites around the net.
   
   [57]What is MRTG ()
          A short overview on what MRTG is, with additional sections on
   history, and highlights.
   
   
   License & MRTG Appreciators
   
   MRTG is freely available under the terms of the
   [58]GNU General Public License
   
   [59]MRTG Appreciators
          I spend a lot of my time maintaining MRTG, answering user
   requests and writing other open source software packages. I keep a
   list of people who have shown their appreciation for my work. For
   example by [60]ordering CD or DVD media from my wish list.
   
   
   Start Using MRTG
   
   [61]Download MRTG
          Get the latest Version of MRTG as Unix source or as precompiled
   for Win32. (There are [62]MRTG Linux RPMs by [63]Henri Gomez)
   
   [64]What is NEW
          The MRTG CHANGES file will give you all the details.
   
   [65]UNIX MRTG Installation Guide ()
          If you plan to run mrtg on a unix machine (this is what I do).
   Then this guide will explain all the details about compiling and
   configuring the system.
   
   [66]Win32 MRTG Installation Guide ()
          A fair number of people run MRTG successfully on Windows NT and
   2k platforms. This guide shows you how this is done. If you insist on
   running MRTG on the Windows 95/98/ME spawns make friends with Jeff
   Liebermann or rather his [67]MRTG for Windows 95, 98, and ME webpage.
   
   [68]MRTG Compatibiliy Charts
          A list of devices and Operating-Systems known to work with
   mrtg.
   
   [69]MRTG Companion Sites / Links
          Many people have setup webpages telling about special
   configurations or applications of mrtg. Check out this huge list if
   you want to go further.
   
   [70]MRTG User Pages
          A large number of people are using MRTG all around the world.
   On this page you find a list of companies and individuals admitting to
   use mrtg.
   
   
   MRTG Documentation Pack
   
   [71]CfgMaker Manual ()
          MRTG configuration files can be generated automatically using
   the cfgmaker.
   
   [72]IndexMaker Manual ()
          Index maker generates an overview page giving you the big
   picture on all the targets you are monitoring.
   
   [73]MRTG Configuration Reference ()
          The Installation guides above will give you a glimpse at what
   is possible with MRTG. But to get the full picture take a look at the
   configuration reference which explains all the configuration options
   available in MRTG.
   
   [74]MRTG FAQ ()
          Answers to Frequently Asked Questions regarding MRTG. And a
   pointer to the official 'Inofficial MRTG FAQ'
   
   [75]MRTG Newsgroup and Mailinglist ()
          Sometimes you just can't seem to find an answer to your MRTG
   problems even when spending a lot of time reading the documentation.
   Then it is best ask someone who can help.
   
   [76]MRTG IMplementation Manual by florin.prunoiu@enterastream.com
          The manual covers all MRTG deployment topics, including the
   standard MRTG version and also the RRDTOOL/Database integration. This
   document is geared towards windows, but the configuration parts are
   not specific to windows.
   
   
   Advanced User Information
   
   [77]Contribution Guidelines ()
          If you plan on contributing code to the MRTG project, please
   make sure you follow the guide lines listed in this document.
   
   [78]RRDtool
          Want to write your own monitoring application? Need more
   powerful graphing? Want to store non integer data? Need more speed?
   Make sure to check out my latest creation: RRDtool.
   
   [79]RRDtool Integration ()
          MRTG can be used together with RRDtool. Lifting it up to a new
   level of performance and flexibility.
   
   [80]MRTG Logfile Format ()
          Some people want to use the data stored in the mrtg log files
   with programs of their own. Learn about the format of the MRTG log
   files.
   
   [81]MRTG_lib Perl Module ()
          Parts of mrtg have been broken out into a Perl module called
   MRTG_lib.pm. Nothing beautiful, but at least there is some
   documentation for it. If you want to write something which parses the
   mrtg configuration file then this might be very useful.
   
   [82]MIB Help ()
          Looking at Traffic rates is interesting, but your router can
   tell you much more. Use this document to get started.
   
   [83]SQUID Monitoring ()
          An Introduction on Using MRTG to monitor a SQUID web cache
   
   [84]Webserver Configuration Hints ()
          Your web server is vital in making mrtg generated web pages and
   graphs available to your customers. This document gives some hints on
   how optimize your web server regarding mrtg.
   
   
   Feedback
   
   If you have any questions about this program, or have it up and
   running,
   we would like to hear from you:
