Tricky. For instantaneous measurements, I use iptraf. Then there is ipac,
which you can use for per ip/per port measurements, which can report on time
intervals.
I also use iptables & mrtg together like this:
iptables -N mrtg-from-the-internet > /dev/null 2> /dev/null
iptables -N mrtg-to-the-internet > /dev/null 2> /dev/null
iptables -A INPUT -i eth0 \! -s 213.244.168.192/26 -j mrtg-from-the-internet
iptables -A OUTPUT -o eth0 \! -d 213.244.168.192/26 -j mrtg-to-the-internet
and then:
Target[traffic]: `/var/www/mrtg.ds9a.nl/traffic`
and /var/www/mrtg.ds9a.nl/traffic:
#!/bin/sh
/sbin/iptables -L -n -v -x | grep mrtg- |grep "^ " | awk "{print \$2}"
uptime
uname -a
