New installation of pfSense v2.4.2_1 - Bandwidth Usage Reports
-
Hi everyone,
I've installed a pair of pfSense devices on 1U Dell R610s with 48GB RAM and 146GB of HDD space.
They work fine, and almost all of the configuration is perfect. The only issue I am having is getting the email reporting to work as I'd expect it to. I understand RRD is gone, and I am fine with that.
I have vnstat installed, and I have setup the openvpn interface and the VLAN interface on bce0. But it doesn't appear to be picking up any traffic. It seems to be the same for the OpenVPN connections.
What I'd ideally like is three rows on the email which is sent daily to myself and one other person, one with the data transferred on the WAN interface (which is the VLAN, bce0.xxxx), one with the data transferred on the LAN interface (bce1), and the third with the data transferred via the OpenVPN server (ovpns1)
Can I do this? If so, how?
Thanks.

What happens if you run /usr/local/bin/vnstat from the cli and have you got Status_Traffic_Totals installed ?
