Hmm - ok - well, if you're using an ISDN router to dial back to your
central POP (as opposed to 2 "spare" channels on your remote POP NAS'
OnRamp10/20/30) then you can simply SNMP measure the Ethernet traffic
on *that* router, which will equal the aggregate of the ISDN traffic.

But, if you are dialing back using 2 channels on your remote POP NAS,
then you've got the same problem there, but in reverse :(

*thinks* hmm!

Cheers

Leigh
