Hi! > I was wondering if any one would know of a software that would > do packet or bandwidth accounting for billing a burstable connection, > and also something that would keep track of how many bytes a > client consumed during the period (month). I modified tcpdump to do bean, ehr, packet/byte counting. ftp://ftp.LF.net/pub/unix/systems/FreeBSD/sw/ipcount-19991106.tgz It also requires sleepycat's/berkely DB, some 2.7.x version. Basically, it will add up the bytes that match a given tcpdump expression, over a configurable interval. After the end of each interval, it will dump a traffic matrix with <src> <dst> <bytes> <packets> into a plain ascii file. On our 2mbit link, the files for one month add up to approx. 120 MByte. Send a mail if you questions about it. -- MfG/Best regards, Kurt Jaeger 21 years to go !
