Simple C++ Traffic Volume Logger - Designed for router appliance environments.

ttraff Network Bandwidth Logger

The ttraff tool is an program to log how much bandwidth is moving through each interface and log it out to a database.

The traffic is logged per date and per interface.

An embedded webserver is also included to view graphs of the recorded data.

WARNING

PLEASE NOTE:

This software was written by me to help build a legal case against my old ISP - adapted from code inside DD-WRT.

It was written in a short period of time to be run on a very low RAM, x86 embedded Linux router running Ubuntu, without much care taken for making things easy for other people to use, or much testing.

I have very little experiance of C++, so I can't say the code is very secure.

Please use at your own risk and NOT IN PRODUCTION!

Features
