Hej Patrick Again there might be to ways I think. You could log the traffic via libpcap or netfilter. Netfilter could be set up to log specific traffic and afterwords you could parse the logfile and flush it. The collected data could then be put into a RRD base and graphed. The parsing of the logfiles is quite simple. Libpcap can do pretty much the same. However it might use up more CPU and memory in the process. I guess I could whip up a perlscript that uses libpcap to do that, if you don't know how. There are other projects out there resembling all this, but with a lot of other features included. Although I can't remember them at the time. *ponders*. If it comes back to me I'll post it.
