Aggregation of statistics is done either by looking at +destination, source, both source and destination, or unidirectional IP flows. +Data is stored in an in-memory table or using an SQL database (currently only +MySQL). The content of these tables can be later retrieved by a client program +via a local stream-oriented connection (for simple output or export to MRTG) or +via an SQL client. Gathering packets off the wire is done with the pcap library +and promiscuous mode of one or more network interfaces. + +WWW: http://www.ba.cnr.it/~paolo/pmacct/ |
