Bounty $200: Monitor bandwidth use on IP adresses. NOW $250

Perry

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$.

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 ;-)

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.

FYI:
I have started on the bandwidthd package. http://cvstrac.pfsense.com/chngview?cn=16403

sullrich

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

Link under services after installing package is broken.

Mercredi

Until you start it via status services, yes. BandwidthD must create the contents!

I try install this package on new instaled pfsense with last snapshot from 02.02.
But i cannot start service :

Feb 4 16:31:36 bandwidthd: Syntax Error "syntax error" on line 11
Feb 4 16:31:36 bandwidthd: Syntax Error "syntax error" on line 11
Feb 4 16:31:36 bandwidthd: Monitoring subnet 192.168.10.0 with netmask 192.168.10.0

What does line 11 say of the file /usr/local/bandwidthd/etc/bandwidthd.conf

sullrich

Anyone having issues, please deinstall and reinstall.

Bredys

Line 11 is : "subnet /"

When i delete this free subnet service start without problem
but… i cant acces BandwidthD under Services... still page not found :(

Oki… when i use clean instalation in my vmware, services/BandwidthD works fine after editing bandwidthd config...
But i need everytime when i made change manualy edit config file and delete line with free subnet info.

I try this on real test PFsense box and same problem...

sullrich

Please show me the line in question that you have to remove each time.

I think we're getting close…

Bredys

Everytime … this line : "subnet /"

On my realbox is config like this (2 lan and 1 wan interface)
subnet 192.168.10.0/24
subnet /
subnet 192.168.1.0/24

on vmware (1 wan and 1 lan interface)
subnet 192.168.1.0/24
subnet /

sullrich

Okay, deinstall and reinstall one more time.

If it still fails to work correctly, please issue the following command from shell:

cat /usr/local/pkg/bandwidthd.inc | grep Id

Bredys

Not help …

Okay, I put some more code in to prevent the blank item.

Please try to deinstall and reinstall again. You should now be on 1.19 of that file.
