Description

Tracks network traffic totals over time from a console-friendly interface and database. It is useful for monitoring bandwidth use by interface without running a heavy monitoring stack.

This tool records traffic counters, not packet contents. Administrators should still consider that usage history can reveal network activity patterns.
