I think we're on the same wavelength here... If your Hub/Router whatever supports SNMP read management (i.e, Cisco kit does), you can use a program, called the Multi Router Traffic Grapher, (MRTG), from http://ee-staff.ethz.ch/~oetiker/webtools/mrtg/mrtg.html. You setup a cron job for every 5 minutes or so, and the program queries your routers/hubs/dialin boxes for information and will then graph it in nicely formatted HTML pages, with GIF's and the like. >To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org >with "unsubscribe freebsd-isp" in the body of the message Hope this helps you out as much as it helped me explain where are the unexpected bandwidth surges came from :) -Steven Fletcher (steven@shellnet.com) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-isp" in the body of the message
