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!
