<p class="MsoNormal">Take a look at pmacct, it will be able to handle your needs with a number of modifications. The section I linked below should give you a good starting point. Change the traffic dump to a MySQL database, add some indexes, craft some SQL
queries, then you’re off to the races. As for billing notifications, a cron script would need to calculate the usages, and alert based on your set thresholds.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">For added bonus points, combine it with a BGP feed, and know where your traffic is going outbound, that way intelligent routing changes can be made much quicker.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Hi All<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I am looking for Sflow analytical software that can tell me automatically over say a period of 24 hours (or any time period I select) the average mbit of data consumed for any IP address within our entire AS.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">(Without configuring a rule or billing group for each IP address or customer within our network)<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The purpose is to help quickly work out IP addressees which are using more bandwidth (in or out) than what we consider to be acceptable usage.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">For example, I would like to review a report or be automatically alerted to any IP address using more than an average of 50mbit within the past 24 hour plus have the capability to review data say over a month.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Any names of software of suggestions would be great which I can investigate, happy to look at both commercial software and open source or if you have a Sflow billing solution for data consumption which is simple and easy to use please let
me know <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thanks<o:p></o:p></p>
