Hi all,

I am in the midst of setting up bandwidth monitoring for all my domains and IPs. To do this I will be using IPFW counter rules and ipa.

Question: I have about 250 domains on each box. to monitor all of them, I would need to set up over 500 counter rules, how well will ipfw and freebsd 4.10 and up) handle this?

I tried something like that a while back and while I could create the rules just fine, it proved to be very impractical with the amount of traffic I was dealing with. (around 20Mbits/sec)

I ended up using netgraph and ng_netflow(4) to export the data to another machine that processed all the data.
