[H-GEN] Network Monitoring tool for Enterasys RoadAbout R2

[Kelvin Heng]

Hi David,

I have tried running snmpwalk from net-snmp to walk thru the RoamAbout 
wireless AP. It can work, but I do not have the necessary skill to extract 
out the information to plot out the network graph. Actually, I am looking 
for something similar to MRTG whereby it can auto detect the information of 
the network and generate graph based on the traffic flow in/out of the 
ethernet port.

Regards,
Kelvin Heng
Have A Nice Day!

Well, it depends what you're trying to monitor. MRTG does SNMP, the 
RoamAbout does SNMP. It just comes down to what information the RoamAbout 
offers via SNMP. Have you tried walking the RoamAbout with snmpwalk?
