# MRTG Probes

This repository contains [MRTG](https://oss.oetiker.ch/mrtg/doc/mrtg.en.html) data

collection scripts for plotting different metrics.

### download_performance.py

![Image](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/davesteele/mrtg-probes/master/images/dlperf.png)

Plot '1 hour' and '24 hour' download performance numbers from a specific site,

specified by URL. It uses a file lock to prevent parallel download tests.

    $ download_performance.py -h

    usage: download_performance.py [-h] [-w ] [-b] [-x] 

    

    MRTG script for logging download performance

    

    positional arguments:

                       URL of the test file

    

    optional arguments:

      -h, --help            show this help message and exit

      -w , --workingdir 

                            working directory (with write permissions for the mrtg

                            poller script). Defaults to "/var/www/html/mrtg"

      -b, --bps             Return bits-per-second, instead of bytes-per-second

      -x, --execute         (internal use only) perform the backup test

    

    Called repeatedly, this script will download a url once per hour, and will

    report the latest download speed and the slowest in the last 24 hours.

Example MRTG configuration file, for monitoring download performance from 'otto':

    EnableIPv6: no

    WorkDir: /var/www/html/mrtg
