I don't have this implemented, but it looks like just what you are looking for. Another less intricate system that requires that all traffic be flowing through the box it runs on (unlike ipmeter) is bandmin www.bandmin.org. It's easy to implement. I've got a customized version that lets you create a file with the ip's you want monitored in it for bandmin to draw from, otherwise, it appears to pull the list of ip's to meter from those bound to the box.

Why not setup flows on your router, and use flow-tools to extract the information you want? Not exactly a complete FreeBSD solution but it's a solution none the less. :) -- Robert Hough (rch@acidpit.org) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-isp" in the body of the message To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-isp" in the body of the message
