I am trying to construct what is proving to be a somewhat tricky SQL query. I have a database in which wireless activity data is dumped. The following is a boiled down version of what the table and the contents may look like:
Date,Unit,InputOctets,OutputOctets,AccountingID 2004-01-31 23:59:05,0E:3A:0F,10101,3949,SLAKRMMM 2004-02-01 00:04:07,0E:3A:0F,13843,4192,SLAKRMMM 2004-02-01 00:09:10,0E:3A:0F,53233,9021,SLAKRMMM 2004-02-01 00:14:08,0E:3A:0F,2383,109,NX0ADFF ... 2004-02-29 23:59:15,0E:3A:0F,481234,18233,LAQ5YN3 This requires a bit of explanation. The Unit is the actually wireless modem, and the octet counts are the totals for the unit since it was last rebooted (by adding the new byte activity since the last accounting data five minutes before). The problem comes when the unit is rebooted. At that point the counters start at 0 and a new accounting ID is written. What I need to do is to find out just how much traffic that unit has done in the month of February. I realize I will have to do one query to discover the byte counts for the last record in January, but beyond that I'm stumped. -- Aaron Clausen -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
