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 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.

       --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, spec-
	   ify 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.
