| 3. Make a new cron-fragment in /usr/local/nav/etc/cron.d. This will ensure that you can start/stop collecting using the nav-script. Make sure that you create a fragment that is not likely to be overwritten, i.e. the name should reflect that this is a local addition. This because if a future release of NAV has a fragment with the same name, complications may occur. | 3. Make a new cron-fragment in /usr/local/nav/etc/cron.d.

| - | The current directory-structure with giga-switch-ports and | + | makecricketconfig.pl is planned for a rewrite. It will be rewritten in python. A list with planned changes will come during the year. |
| - | giga-router-interfaces in addition to the other directories is not an | + | |
| - | optimal structure. When you search for a graph you do not want to have | + | |
| - | to search in multiple places to find what you are looking for. | + | |
| - | + | ||
| - | A coming update in NAV plans to solve this problem. It will get rid of | + | |
| - | the giga-directories and put all information in one directory for | + | |
| - | switch-ports and one for router-interfaces. | + | |
| - | + | ||
| - | The reason this has not been done before is that you need to use | + | |
| - | SNMP-v2 to fulfill this, and the current set of network-equipment does | + | |
| - | not always update the SNMP-v2 counters according to the standard. We | + | |
| - | plan to develop a test for this and put the ones that follow the | + | |
| - | standard in the "normal" directories, and the others in another | + | |
| - | directory. Hopefully the number of ports/interfaces that go in the | + | |
| - | other directory will decrease as time goes by and they start to update | + | |
| - | the counters correctly. | + | |
