[cisco-voip] Logging/graphing the output of a Cisco router command..

[Tim Reimers]

Hi everyone-

I have to do something that I suspect has been done before-

I need to monitor how many PRI channels are in use for phone calls on a
Cisco 2651XM 
using two T1 interfaces to two bonded PRIs
(30 channels total across two PRIs)

I want to know how close we're getting to 30 channels in use at any
given time-
I don't want to interpret CDR logs or debug the router to do this...

Method 1 -
Get the OID for PRI channels in use (whatever the heck that is)
for both PRIs - somehow add them together to graph all 30 channels.

Method 2- 
Get a script that can interpret the output of a 'sh isdn active'

This too reports only on one PRI at a time unless you specify the serial
Interestingly enough, I could not find the outgoing call I was making
between my IP phone and my cell.... Saw these two other calls, but
neither serial1/1 or serial1/0 showed the call

Here's what the output looks like.


ACS-GW#sh isdn active Serial 1/0:23

I'm sending this to both the MRTG mailing list and the cisco-voip list
so that people from both lists can offer suggestions...
