[c-nsp] [OT] Graphing more than 114Mbps with mrtg

[Gabriel]

Mark,

You need to use 64 bit counters; and rather than looking for specific OIDs, 
just tell MRTG to look for them.  This is done by setting the target 
appropriately.

i.e.,
Standard target:
Target[standard]:   1:public at router

64 bit counter target:
Target[fob]:  1:public at router:::::2

Reference:

    (Under "PER TARGET CONFIGURATION")


Enjoy,
Gabriel.
