[xymon] Monitoring a network cards bandwidth?

[Ralph Mitchell]

If you have 'sar' on the system, that'll give you transmit/receive
bytes/packets per second.  Failing that, you can use 'ifconfig'.  In either
case, you'll need to write a script to capture the output and extract the
interface(s) information to forward to your Xymon server.  On the server
side, you'll need to set up ncv to capture the information for graphing.
