munin SNMP

anyway I have an out of the box debian munin install on my epia box (hostname mythic) and I wanted to also plot the network traffic on my swisscom VDSL router (which is SNMPable)

Magic incantation to /etc/munin/munin.conf is:

[mythic.localnet]
address 127.0.0.1

use_node_name no

munin-node-configure-snmp router.localnet | sh
