Re: Reseted net statistics

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



Thank you for answer,

last number of transefered data that I seen was about three or four gigabytes - this is too low for roll over or not?

I´m not using phpSysInfo for monitoring transfered data and I do not want to monitor them. I was only surprised how it happened.

Network stats are based on a 32bit number if I recall. When you have
passed enough traffic, that number will roll over and begin again.

If you want to monitor traffic, phpsysinfo really isn't the way to do
it. Use cacti or mrtg to poll the system periodically and record the
stats. It takes into account network rollover.
