[rtg] Creating availability graph's

[Bart van den Heuvel]

That sounds extreemly cool. Do you have any documents on how you did that?
Maybe some notes? Maybe i can rebuild your setup and document it for the RTG
community?

I'm still just tracking tracking traffic volume as is but the ambition is to
look into that volume and report on origin-destination / protocol breakdown.
Based on netflow but i guess ipsla and other counters are also great
sources.

Kind regards, Bart
