Hey, Steve,and all the honoured members here I have this total newbee question: Can I fill that Unknown data (gray bar) gap with the AVERAGE, just like MRTG does .. I known it wrecks my average, but nevertheless .. Thanks in advance |

MRTG doesn't actually fill with the average, it fills with the last known value (or with 0 if you have unknaszero set). Currently, routers.cgi doesnt do this. The main reason for this is that, when I first wrote it, the people at my place of work all would rather have had grey to show 'not known' than for it to make a potentially misleading guess. It also showed host uptime in the case of servers. Is this a feature that anyone else is interested in having? It would not be all that difficult to implement, I think -- in fact, a slightly similar procedure is used to prevent last=0 on userdefined graphs using PREV(). Steve |

Hej Steve I think this will give my <i>Routers2.cgi</i> the last finishing touch .. if succeed, indeed But That <b>Prev()</b> function .. is it to be set in the CGI, or in my config? I would apriciate, if you could give som details about that implementation.. May be its SO trivial to you ,Steve.. But please bear with Not-so-RDDTool-savvy me |

And now, an update! If you have the LATEST (2.17) version of routers2, you can use the new 'unknasprev' option. This will fill UNKNOWN with the PREVIOUS value - in the same way that native MRTG does. You can also still use the unknaszero option (to fill with zero) or use the routers2 default (fill with greyout). Note that filling with previous or zero will affect the averages. The new unknasprev option: routers.cgi*Options[target]: unknasprev Steve |

I just happened to be here... Anyway, shows that things people ask for here really *do* make it onto the wishlist, and get added to the product. Now, I wonder if this 'said' guy is still around, and if he'll get me something from my amazon wishlist now? |

This is where the default and prepend/append targets come in useful. routers.cgi*Options[$]: unknasprev will add the unknasprev option to the end of the options list for all targets. Note that if you use the default target '_' then this can be replaced by any options explicitly defined for a given target. |

Hi Steve. Thanks for the help! Can you spell it out for me a little more? What file are you adding this into? I put it toward the top of every .cfg file I have, to get the job done (and it is working great) but I am still curious if I could have done this differently? - Scott |
