Hi all,

I've got a Jetstart ADSL connection, terminated with an Alcatel Speed
Touch Home, hooked up to an old 486 I have running linux and doing
NATing/Firewalling. Unfortunately, the STHome does not seem to support
traffic graphing, so I've been looking for other ways to do it. It
occurred to me I could install SNMP on my 486 and configure it to
monitor the LAN card the ADSL modem is on (it's just it on a card) and
then either use an apache plugin and view the graphs from a server, or
get a windows SNMP client and view them from my main comp. (and a linux
client for my Debian dual-boot :). Unfortunately, SNMP seems to be
incredibly difficult to configure to do this, and I just can't work it
out :/. Does anyone have any advice on how to set traffic monitoring up,
either with SNMP or otherwise, or a link to a site/page that will help
with this?

Thanks,

Nick Johnson
