Re: (ASCEND) tracking modem usage

Radius is not a good place to look. You are better off with SNMP.
You can graph everything using the MRTG package. Here's like a
8 line script to do it. (No, its not the real community :)

----------------------------------------------------------------
#!/bin/csh
set bank1name="max4.fred.net"
set bank1community="yadda-yadda-yadda"
set variable=.1.3.6.1.4.1.529.12.3.1.4
set uptimeoid=.1.3.6.1.2.1.1.3

set NUMMODEMS=`snmpwalk -v 1 $bank1name $bank1community $variable| wc -l`
set UPTIME=`snmpwalk -v 1 $bank1name $bank1community $uptimeoid | cut
-d")" -f2`

@ MODEMS += $NUMMODEMS

echo $MODEMS
echo $MODEMS
echo $UPTIME
