How do others determine usage of the individual PVCs to other peers?
Assuming you're using MRTG, if you have a new enough IOS you can poll the VC stats directly with SNMP. Try something like this: Target[vc111]: VccInOctets.xx.yy.zz&VccOutOctets.xx.yy.zz:public@router Where: xx == snmp ifindex yy == vpi zz == vci E.g., given the following: router> sh atm vc 111 ATM5/0: VCD: 111, VPI: 1, VCI: 11 % snmpwalk -v 1 router public ... interfaces.ifTable.ifEntry.ifDescr.32 = "ATM5/0-atm layer" interfaces.ifTable.ifEntry.ifDescr.33 = "ATM5/0.0-atm subif" interfaces.ifTable.ifEntry.ifDescr.34 = "ATM5/0-aal5 layer" interfaces.ifTable.ifEntry.ifDescr.35 = "ATM5/0.0-aal5 layer" ... The target string should look like this: Target[vc111]: VccInOctets.35.1.11&VccOutOctets.35.1.11:public@router Older versions (I don't know when this support finally appeared) required you to write a script and manually pull the necessary info out of 'sh atm vc' output (dumping it in a file for MRTG to read). --Jeff
