DESCRIPTION
Indexmaker can create web pages which display the status of an array of
mrtg interface status pages.
--output filename
set output filename (default: stdout)
--filter (title|pagetop|name)(=~|!~)regexp
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.
--title text
Set title of generated index file (default: regexp)
--bodyopt text
The value of this argument gets appended to the <BODY> tag. This
allows you to set document colors. By default this option is set
to
bgcolor="#ffffff" text="#000000" link="#000000" vlink="#000000" alink="#000000"
--columns number
Display graphs in a table with number columns (default: 2)
--sort title|name|descr|original
Sort the graphs in the page either by title, by name, by interface
description, or leave them as is.
--enumerate
Add a sequence number to the title of each graph
--width number
Set width of graphs
--height number
Set the height of the graphs
--show day|week|month|year|none
Select which graph to show in the index page. You can supress
images completely with --show=none.
--section h1|title|name|description|portname
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.
--sectionhost
Extract the hostname from the target line (this does not work if
the target is a mathematial expression). Prepend the hostname (and
a colon) to the section if not already present.
--rrdviewer path
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)
--prefix path
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.
--autoprefix path
Requires --output. Try to generate the prefix automatically by
comparision of the path to the output file set with --output and
the Htmldir set in the configuration files. Particulary useful
when multiple configuration files are specified, with different
Htmldir settings.
--optlog
Default is logging in the generated page the command line, suppress
with --nooptlog . Useful if the commandline contains a complex
--pagetop=string which could confuse simple browsers.
--someoption-file filename
For any someoption which takes a string as parameter you can read
the string from a file by adding <-file> to the option keyword. The
whole content of the file will be read and used as the string. The
file must exist.
