      this is also something I have a need for. I want to be able to view bandwidth info in and out for day, week, month and total. I want to see what local ips did what and where the bandwidth is being used on what port/protocol. I also would like there to be an alert system so it can email me an alaert once a number was reached for downloading and I'd be able ot choose that for a day, week, month etc. I'd want it to look like 3mb WAN in, 4gb wan in, 50gb wan in etc type of numbers. It would say, http used 40mb or gb or whatever it has. It's say nntp used 50gb or whatever etc. It'd be nice to see hits for web sites. Such as a top 20 or something that has in order web site traffic info. Like number 1 apple.com 456 hits number 2 microsoft.com 409 hits from top to bottem. but it would be nice to have unique visits and hits as an optioin. so you could view how many times people went to the sites. so if you go to apple.com 5 times it would say 5. the hits option would show total hits which i guess included images and links too. there are some images of what all of this would look like if wanted. from a company that does something similar in their router/appliance.

      I plan on starting this project very soon.  If you want to donate to it, please feel free.

        I will donate for sure once it's ready and does things I would like, but most importantly when I get money. I don't work right now, but should be soon. So when that happens and the bandwidth info stuff is having the info I'd like and stuff I'm going to donate for sure for sure. I'll wait and see when it's more ready to see what kind of things it will do.

          Sure, no worries.  I don't expect someone that currently does not have an income to pay.  Generally its nice that a company backs these bounties…  Or atleast thats what I generally think of that drives these changes.

                    Will this solution give us the following two reports:

                    1. Total traffic by service port number (and also sub divided into IPs if possible)
                    2. Total traffic by IP address AND NetBIOS name

                    If yes I will double the current bounty immediately ;-)

                              Well I think ppl only sent half up front.

                              But either way, 500$.. Where does that figure come from?

                                it came from the subject of this bounty, $250 for the package.

                                  Hi There

                                  I hope some of the 100$ i've send could help this bounty.

                                  me /slaps Backbone for not sending any of the norwegian oil money, as he started this bounty :p

                                  It was Hank who would add the last 250$.

                                    Yes, it was me, but if I expressed myself clearly it was related to the two 'features' I explicitly mentioned and that the statistics is saved to disk (recoverable after power failures etc..)

                                    Any comments on this, Scott..?

                                      I dont plan on changing bandwidthd, just getting it working on pfSense.  So if it will be saved across a reboot, etc, I don't know and would be a feature of the application itself.

                                          Alrighty, test it out.  It should be in the packages area now.

                                            Link under services after installing package is broken.
