Hi Stef Thats right, if i make cron job run every 5min, so i will loose only 5min of data.
i was not understand " You can record the difference between the 2 reads and discard negative values. " you mean to say first 5min and next 5min bytes increasing ok if not i will discard and take new values you mean. If i make the log to mysql, so it will be 24hours right is there anything i can make every 5min dump the data to Mysql using ULOG hare ----- Original Message ----- From: "Stef Coene" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "hare ram" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, August 27, 2003 11:11 PM Subject: Re: [LARTC] Performanace fo the Iptables Server > On Wednesday 27 August 2003 19:31, hare ram wrote: > > Hi Stef > > > > How about Source and Desitination port, and protocol wise bytes transfer ( > > like http, ftp, icmp, udp), if i want to track. > > > > next limitation, if the Server goes down, the traffic will be zero, that > > will be another Limitation > Not true.
