Monitor bandwidth usage per month

My ISP has started capping montly usage, i was wondering if there was a package for PFSense that would show me the total data transfered, and reset on a monthly basis.

Thanks!

It wouldn't be perfect but you could reinstall your system on the 1st of the month in the morning and use the built in graph with 30 day view.. :) Like I said. Not perfect.

Well, there are several apps that monitor traffic vis SNMP protocol. Like PRTG or MRTG that could be installed on any Windows or Linux (respectively) server in your network. SNMP is activated in PFSense under Services sub menu. Regards. ;)

I use snmp now (cacti) but will only show me the in/out trafic at 5m intervils.

It wont say this month you transfered 35gb.
