IP Bandwidth Watchdog 0.8.1 (Default branch)

Image ipband is a pcap-based traffic monitor. It tallies per-subnet traffic and bandwidth usage and starts detailed logging if the specified threshold for a specific subnet is exceeded. This utility could be handy in a limited bandwidth WAN environment (frame relay, ISDN, etc.) to pinpoint offending traffic sources if certain links become saturated to the point where legitimate packets start getting dropped. License: GNU General Public License (GPL) Changes:
The integer type was changed to hold a cumulative byte count from long to double to avoid counter overflow in reports. Debian-specific changes include avoiding the use of /usr/local/, a man page in section 8, avoiding the use of printf when running in the background, successful building even if strtok_r is defined as a macro, and a change of the default MTA command string for mailing reports.Image

NAME
bandwidthd.conf - configuration file for bandwidthd DESCRIPTION
The file, /etc/bandwidthd/bandwidthd.conf, is read by bandwidthd when started. It contains a small set of tunable options for bandwidthd features that can be adjusted. OPTIONS
subnet <network> <netmask> Subnet to log traffic for. dev <device> Device to listen on. skip_intervals <n> Number on intervals (2.5 minute) to skip between graphing. Default 0. graph_cutoff <kilobytes-minimum> Number of kilobytes required before drawing a graph for a host. Default 1024. promiscuous <bool> Put device in promisc ("eavesdropping") mode. Default true. output_cdf <bool> Write logfiles for analyzed traffic. Default false. recover_cdf <bool> Recover from logfiles after restart. Default false. Warning: This can take very long time if the logfiles are big. Enabling this and having bandwidthd start on system start might be a bad idea. It will delay your possibilities to log in locally since it's not done in the background. filter <pcap-filter-rule> Pcap filter rule to use. Always include "ip" to avoid weird problems. Default "ip". graph <bool> Write graphs and html for analyzed traffic. Default true. meta_refresh <seconds> Number of seconds before html-page reloads. 0 to disable. Default 150. FILES
