Total Bandwidth Usage
-
I have a a Client that I have setup Internet across multiple cabins. I would like to see if there is a way to monitor the Peak bandwidth usage to see if they are in need of the Internet service they are paying for. I have looked at the graphs under status/Monitoring and set it to Traffic/WAN. Will this give me the correct Peak i am looking for over the last 3 months? They are Paying for Gig fiber and according to this graph the highest they have peaked at over the last 3 months is 50Mb if I am looking at it correctly.
I guess since I got this far I am just looking for verification that I am at the right place.
Thanks In advance

I use BandwidthD because it has historical data for total and by client. It does seem to not do well with clients on all VLANs, but does a good job for my primary.

The rrd graphs are averaged over quite a long period at the 3 month view. They are almost certainly peaking at much higher than 50Mbps. If you look at shorted spans you will find higher peaks.
