mrtg-squid \- using mrtg to monitor Squid
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
Squid 2.3 knows \s-1SNMP\s0 and you can therefore use mrtg to
monitor it quite easily.
.PP
I have made some modifications to mrtg which simplify this.
My work is based on earlier modification made by:
matija.grabnar@arnes.si and kostas@nlanr.net.
.SH "MODIFICATIONS"
.IX Header "MODIFICATIONS"
I added new code for displaying correct units to the
previous patches \*(L"perminute\*(R" and \*(L"perhour\*(R" (\*(L"option\*(R" tokens),
which allows other measurement in addition to \*(L"persecond\*(R".
.PP
Then I created a new option token \*(L"dorelpercent\*(R" which
allows the calculation of the percentage of IN-stream / OUT-stream on
the fly and then displays it on a fixed scale from 0% to 100%. For my
requirements, this does good work. Maybe someone wants a floating
scale. It should not be a problem to implement it, too (but 
give me an option to keep my fixed scale). If IN-stream is always
less than OUT-stream both lines (OUT-stream and relative percent)
are always displayed on top of IN-stream bulk. Otherwise this
option makes no sense. With this option you can display hitrates,
errorrates (for router monitoring: rel. droprates) easily now.
.PP
If you use this options please consider that you need a 5th
colourname/value pair in your Colours statements!
.PP
Due to some discussion on this list, I have implemented two
tokens too:
.PP
\&\*(L"kilo\*(R" and \*(L"kMG\*(R"
.PP
\&\*(L"kilo\*(R" should contain the value of k (1000 or 1024), where 1000 is the
default.
.PP
\&\*(L"kMG\*(R" is a comma separated list of multiplier prefixes, used
instead of "\*(L", \*(R"k\*(L", \*(R"M\*(L", \*(R"G\*(L", \*(R"T" on the \s-1MRTG\s0 display. Leave the
place free, if you want no prefix.
.PP
Also an incomplete list of OIDs for the new \s-1SQUID\s0 release is
added.
.PP
You may need to turn on snmp_port in squid.conf to as it is disabled by default.
.PP
I hope you enjoy it.
.SH "CONFIG EXAMPLE"
.IX Header "CONFIG EXAMPLE"
First load the squid mib
.PP
.Vb 1
\& LoadMIBs: /usr/share/squid/mib.txt
.Ve
.PP
You can measure responsetimes in ms and display it with \s-1MRTG\s0
correctly with:
.PP
.Vb 2
\& kMG[measure\-ms]: m,,k,M,G,T
\& short[measure\-ms]: s
.Ve
.PP
You can display now MB/s as 1024*1024 B/s with:
.PP
.Vb 1
\& kilo[volume]: 1024
.Ve
.PP
Assuming you're not running squid's \s-1SNMP\s0 on the default snmp port, you need
to include a port number in your target line:
.PP
.Vb 1
\& Target[proxy\-hit]: cacheHttpHits&cacheProtoClientHttpRequests:public@localhost:3401
.Ve
.PP
A sample config for squid:
.PP
.Vb 11
\& Target[proxy\-hit]: cacheHttpHits&cacheProtoClientHttpRequests:public@proxy
\& Title[proxy\-hit]: HTTP Hits
\& PageTop[proxy\-hit]: <H2>proxy Cache Statistics: HTTP Hits / Requests</H2>
\& Suppress[proxy\-hit]: y
