DESCRIPTION
Indexmaker can create web pages which display the status of an array of mrtg interface status pages. set output filename (default: stdout) Several filters may get set. Each filter can match agains the contents of a specific section of the mrtg config file. Name refers to the bit in square brackets (option[name]: bla).

Depending on the match operator chosen (=~ or !~) the match will be positive or negative.

Note that some shells consider ! a special character. It may be necessary to type \!~ instead. Set title of generated index file (default: regexp) The value of this argument gets appended to the <BODY> tag. This allows to set document colors. By default this option is set to

 bgcolor="#ffffff" text="#000000" link="#000000" vlink="#000000" alink="#000000"
Display graphs in a table with number columns (default: 2) Sort the graphs in the page either by title, by name, by interface description, or leave them as is. Add a sequence number to the title of each graph Set width of graphs Set the height of the graphs Select which graph to show in the index page. You can supress images completely with --show=none. Select what to use as the title for each graph in the page. h1 is the H1 section from pagetop, title is the graph title, name is the bit in square brackets (option[name]: bla), and descr or description is the text from the Description field of the PageTop (the Cisco description text if it's available, otherwise just the interface description). portname is the "Port Name:" from pagetop. If you have set the LogFormat: rrdtool property in the mrtg.cfg file, the index will take this into account. The only thing you must tell it is the path to your grapher cgi. (default: /cgi-bin/14all.cgi) By default we assume that the file generated by indexmaker is stored in WorkDir. If you want to store it somewhere else, specify how to reach WorkDir from the place where the Index is stored. Note that you have to use '/' as path separator as this will be used in urls. Speaking of which, you can even enter a whole url.
