Bandwidth use details
-
Hello everyone and thank you for your interest.
I have a pfSense 2.1 installed for about 200 users.I use: routing (3 internet access), Firewall, DHCP (deny unknow client, static arp) squid3, squidGuard, pfbloker.
My question:
I can see the global use of my bandwidth.
But for example, right now, I have a user who eats while out and I can not identify them. I just see that all my output bandwidth is puff.What I do not know where I could see the use of my bandwidth / IP?
How to limit / ip bandwidth input and output?Thank you all for your experience returns.

Hi,
you have searched menu "Status" for possible solutions?
=> Try the 2nd last one: "Traffic Graphs" … ;) -
alternatively you could look at installing some of the packages such as BandwidthD or Darkstat. these can give you more detail on the type of traffic
-
Thanks all for your responses.
DARKSTAT -> good, i use it now ! -
so your traffic is all through the proxy, squid3 that your running. This should be able to give you top talkers. even if you have to run the logs through a different parser. There are loads of squid log analyzers out there that should be able to give you those kinds of details.
-
That will only give you HTTP/S stats, no? If he's trying to catch a P2P user, Squid won't help with that. The fact that the user 'eats while out' tells me that a P2P app is the likely culprit.
-
Well that is easy enough to fix - why would those ports be open, only thing outbound from a work network should be the proxy ;)
