      In Bandwidthd's config file, it's entire possible to listen from multiple interfaces and this is how I used to do it in Ubuntu.

      Can it be changed in pfSense to allow it to listen on multiple interfaces instead of just one? This way I can monitor machine activities to pfSense and figure out which ones are accessing pfSense and which are using the Internet, which are using pfSense, and what the total input and output is of the Internet-facing NIC. It should be quite an easy fix to change that one setting in the interface from radio to check box mode.

      A quick fix is to edit the config file manually then restart bandwidthd, but this isn't ideal in an environment like pfSense.
