RE: MRTG and IPTABLES

Hi,

It uses SNMP protocol. I think this is built on top of the UDP protocol. I
am not sure. Try opening up UDP port 1491. 

Hope this helps

No, not off hand but you can use a tool like Ethereal
(http://www.ethereal.com) or just tcpdump or even just log the ropped
packets in iptables to determine what MRTG is trying to do.  Good luck -
