BandwidthD - Bandwidth monitoring
Provides a method to measure the bandwidth that travels
through the machine, grouped by subnet and IP. This
information can be stored locally in /var/lib/bandwidthd and
can be configured to generate static HTML pages which can be
hosted by a web server.
It is highly recommended that the target has some way of
retaining the time between reboots. (e.g. NTP on boot or an
RTC)
It is suggested to use sqlite for logfile storage but works
fine without, and can be completely ignored if the
postgresql portion is used.
As upstream is no longer actively maintained, a fork is
available on github that works on making BandwidthD's build
process more compatible with buildroot's.

Enable support for logging the bandwidthd data to a remote
(or local) postgresql server. This data can then be viewed
through a php site. See README in the source code
(github.com/nroach44/bandwidthd) for more information.
