vnstat
thanks
I learned a pretty cool track of just using iptables.
Online.net also have a monitoring menu in the console area. But we can also install vnstat :
Also install iftop to monitor the conenction
Munin?
you have that integrated into online panel. Click on your server, then you have statistics, later you have daily, weekly and monthly bandwidth graphs with legend.
Vnstat is nice.
Ifconfig (network adapter)
Ex: ifconfig eth0
That's the worst way to monitor your bandwidth
The count is reset after a reboot, it doesn't show by hour/day/month/whatever, and it can't separate by IP/alias.
simply go for ifconfig
the tx/rx shows the data usage...
yah.. online.net have the option.. But I just wanna try other way just for fun.. I tried vnstat with frontend.. I happy with it.. I will try other way mentioned later
thanks
I use vnstat, vnstati is also a great tool to have. If you wanted to generate graphs
observium looks nice
Are you more interested in live bandwidth usage or total monthly usage? If it's live bandwidth usage you're after, iftop is an excellent tool. We have it installed on all of our machines.
