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

Bredys · Feb 4, 2007, 8:23 PM

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 /

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

Not help …
/* $Id: bandwidthd.inc,v 1.18 2007/02/04 20:23:27 sullrich Exp $ */

Subnets to collect statistics on. Traffic that

matches none of these subnets will be ignored.

Syntax is either IP Subnet Mask or CIDR

subnet 192.168.1.0/24
subnet /

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.

Bredys · Feb 4, 2007, 8:42 PM

Its OK now :)

Thanks

sullrich · Feb 4, 2007, 8:43 PM

Thanks ! :)

The conf is still not being written out correctly. For example, instead of recover_cdf it needs to be "recover_cdf true".

Thanks. Should be fixed now. Wait atleast 5 minutes from this message to reinstall.

LawnMowerGuy1 · Feb 5, 2007, 4:27 AM

Wow thats quick. Now it has" recover_cdf on" which still isn't quite right. Also, the draw graphs tickbox seems to have no effect on the conf.

Okay, reinstall plz.

OK now it will start, but I cannot seem to generate any graphs. Has anyone successfully generated any graphs?

I get
"bandwidthd has nothing to graph. This message should be replaced by graphs in a few minutes. If it's not, please see the section titled "Known Bugs and Troubleshooting" in the README"

Also IMO the bandwidthd page should open in a new window.

Yes, but it took about 20 minutes. Now is the time to be patient :)

What does any config or not mean?

Mercredi · Feb 5, 2007, 5:09 AM

any config mean any config at all. setting any parameters in the package configuration. for example if i choose to save output file and to recover data from it after reboot the service is failed to start…

Yes, on the latest version it should be fine. Deinstall and reinstall.

Mercredi · Feb 5, 2007, 5:37 AM

also how to take a look at the config file? bandwidth is counted only 2kb of traffic on my opt1 interface.

sullrich · Feb 5, 2007, 5:41 AM

Try enabling promiscuous mode.

Config file is in /usr/local/bandwidthd/etc/bandwidthd.conf

Mercredi · Feb 5, 2007, 5:47 AM

ill try. also there is an error on the "status_services.php?mode=startservice&service=bandwidthd" page. it states "bandwidthd has been started." on top, bat as i can see below it isnt started.

update: reinstalled and the problem with cdf option is still remain.

Okay, try launching it by hand and see what it says.
