pmacct is a network tool to gather ip traffic informations
|
|
(bytes counter and number of packets); aggregation of
|
|
statistics is done using simple primitives (MAC addresses,
|
|
source host, destination host, ports and ip protocols) that can
|
|
be used alone or combined together to form complex aggregation
|
|
methods; counters are either global or historical (aggregated
|
|
and separated at fixed timeslots). Data is stored in a
|
|
in-memory table or using a SQL database (MySQL or PostgreSQL).
|
|
Gathering packets off the wire is done using pcap library and
|
|
promiscuous mode of network interfaces when specifically
|
|
required.
