It looks your host2 has normal value of mbuf usage.  Is there the
difference of apprication with these hosts?

I'm using net-snmp and mrtg to collect statistics of mbuf/mbufc
usage.  If you can find any trends (increasing at specific time period
or so), it would be help for further debugging.

---- mrtg.cfg
