Showing Graphs from MRTG Server about ixp-manager HOT 3 CLOSED

Hi Muga,

Thanks for the s/w I installed it and logged in for the first time.

Great - delighted to hear the install documentation is making this easier!

My main agenda for today is to inquire how to display the MRTG
graphs.

Ouch! You've probably pick the hardest and most undocumented aspect of
IXP Manager!

Currently I want to display the aggregate traffic graph on the IXP
Manager Homepage.

This bit's actually quite easy if you want to "hack" it in. You would
just need to skin the homepage. See:
https://github.com/inex/IXP-Manager/wiki/Skinning

Then you'd copy application/views/admin/index.phtml to
application/views/_skins/kixp/admin/index.phtml (for example).

See the source at:

https://github.com/inex/IXP-Manager/blob/master/application/views/admin/index.phtml

Around the HTML block at line 148 you could put in a static tag
for the aggregate graphs.

However, to do it right:

How do i do it on the main config file to pick the graph. Our graphs
link is http://mtambo.kixp.or.ke/mrtg/aggregate.html My thinking is
if I can manage that one I will be able to do it for the rest of the
members.

Not so easy. The graphing is quite complex and we do need to document it
properly. We're talking with another IXP at the moment who are
considering contributing to the project and part of that will be to
properly structure and document the graphing framework. Stay tuned!
