Linux Advanced Routing and Traffic Control

I don't know if this is the "proper" way to go about doing this, but =
here is
one way you could get it done with ip rule and realms.  This requires =
the
iproute2 package to be installed, and all of the pretty policy routing
options enabled in the kernel.  This would only be practical for a =
small
number of addresses, but it looks like you only have 2 so I don't think =
it
will be a big deal.

1) edit /etc/iproute2/rt_realms, and add an entry for each ip address =
you
want to monitor.  The format is:
<number>     <realmname>
so:
1            host1
2            host2

2) Then add rules to match the packets to realms.

/sbin/ip rule add from 192.168.130.2/32 lookup table main realms =
host1(the
realm name)
/sbin/ip rule add from 192.168.130.3/32 lookup table main realms host2

This will assign the traffic from specific hosts to your realms for
accounting, while still looking up the main routing table.  After this =
is
done, just type rtacct to to see the breakdown of packets on each
realm(hence address) by to/from in bytes and number of packets. This =
may not
be the way you were looking for, but hey...it works and it's fun.  Hope =
this
helps.

Thank you VaibhaV,

Your script works just fine however my problem is to get traffic =
information
about both downlink and uplink on a NAT server. Do you know what =
iptables
rules
should I use to be able to see such information? Right now my rules =
look
like
this (generated by iptables-save):

*nat
:PREROUTING ACCEPT [1372:944647]
:POSTROUTING ACCEPT [0:0]
:OUTPUT ACCEPT [0:0]
-A POSTROUTING -s 192.168.130.2 -j MASQUERADE
-A POSTROUTING -s 192.168.130.3 -j MASQUERADE

Regards,

Sebastian
