I want to measure total download data the measurement I have based on Cacti graph is average interface bandwidth is 1M/sec for 24hrs. I want to know daily,weekly and so on but at this time I am looking what calculation I can use to know total download data. thanks in advance for any suggestion. Paul

Hi,

I use MRTG and it works fine for me.

It keeps daily, weekly, monthly and yearly statistics. In addition, there are lots of things you can do for further customization. Just check out the available documentation on their site:

There's a screenshot of the program available which shows exactly what the output is:

If you need help installing it, just tell me.

Best regards,

Thanks for your response. I have use Cacti and work just fine for showing performance statistics. now I am looking for instead of what data transfer per/sec, I just want  how many total data download from the internet on given hour or day.  

example  router A interface se0/1/0.200 total data download  10Gig                               

router A interface se0/1/0.300 total data download   20Gig 

I do understand I can customize the graph template but I don't know how to convert bandwidth data which is currently measure M/sec to actual total download data. 

Thanks

You are welcome!

I think you need to configure netflow on the device and use a netflow analyzer utility to get this data.

ManageEngine Netflow Analyzer 9 could do that job. It's not freeware but you can use it to monitor up to two interfaces for free. If you need more, you have to get a license.

There's an interactive demo and you can see how it actually works.

Just press the login button on the following page:

Would this be what you're looking for?

If you need help to configure netflow, I will gladly provide it.

Best regards,
