Hello
Im trying to understand how I can fix the header problem for each of my ports. Each port shows up as a number, instead of port description.
No matter what option I give cfgmaker, it wont give me what I need.

This is the background.
MRTG 2.17.4
Windows Server.
cfgmaker
perl cfgmaker public@10.3.9.1 --ifref=descr --ifdesc=descr --global "WorkDir: C:\inetpub\wwwroot\Miami-Core" --output MIACORE.cfg

Outputs this:
### Interface 31 >> Descr: 'Vlan31' | Name: 'Vl31' | Ip: '10.3.1.1' | Eth: 'c4-64-13-5d-6c-c2' ###

Target[10.4.9.1_31]: 31:public@10.4.9.1:
SetEnv[10.4.9.1_31]: MRTG_INT_IP="10.3.1.1" MRTG_INT_DESCR="Vlan31"
MaxBytes[10.4.9.1_31]: 125000000
Title[10.4.9.1_31]: Traffic Analysis for 31 -- P-DC2-ETHSW01.pti.local
PageTop[10.4.9.1_31]: <h1>Traffic Analysis for 31 -- P-DC2-ETHSW01.pti.local</h1>

Another Output:
### Interface 10107 >> Descr: 'GigabitEthernet1/0/7' | Name: 'Gi1/0/7' | Ip: 'No Ip' | Eth: 'c4-64-13-5d-6c-87' ###

Target[10.4.9.1_10107]: 10107:public@10.4.9.1:
SetEnv[10.4.9.1_10107]: MRTG_INT_IP="No Ip" MRTG_INT_DESCR="GigabitEthernet1/0/7"
MaxBytes[10.4.9.1_10107]: 125000000
Title[10.4.9.1_10107]: Traffic Analysis for 10107 -- P-DC2-ETHSW01.pti.local
PageTop[10.4.9.1_10107]: <h1>Traffic Analysis for 10107 -- P-DC2-ETHSW01.pti.local</h1>


As you can see, the Title and PageTop shows "Traffic Analysis for 31" or "Traffic Analysis for 10107"

Whomever will look at the website, they will not know what 31 or 10107 is. I need it to say Vlan31 or GigabitEthernet1/0/7

I tried every possible cfgmaker option they show on the MRTG website, name, type, eth. Nothing changes this output.

How can I do that, PLEASE? I ben looking everywhere and searching everywhere and I cant find an answer.
Please anyone, I really need this, as we running into some traffic issues.

Thanks...

Anyone can help me PLEASE?

When you run cfgmaker to build the MRTG cfg files, you should use the --ifdesc option to specify how to describe the targets.

If you have MRTG 2.17 then you can use multiple options.

eg:

cfgmaker --ifdesc=alias,descr,name,ip,nr

This will try and use descrpition, if it doesnt find one will use port name, else IP address, else number. Default is 'nr' which is number only.
