Traffic Monitoring Question

[JoshFink]

Hi, two quick questions that I wasn't able to find with a search.

1. I thought I read that Traffic Monitoring measures internal network traffic. Is there a way to measure WAN traffic? I want to see how much bandwidth (UP/Down) is going through my router.

2. Is the only option for the logs to be on a USB or can I mount a network share? I'd like to mount my Synology NAS if possible.

Thanks for the help

Josh

what firmware are you running? maybe i'm wrong, but i thought this is the internet traffic.

Ok.. I could have sworn I read somewhere that it wasn't. It makes sense that it would be so thanks.

What about storing it anywhere else other than the USB?

Thanks

Well, I can mount a folder that exists on my DS110J (although it is mapped to the local USB) and this shows up in the GUI.

P.S. I haven't tried to create the TrafficSTATs on the DS-110J.

How did you mount the folder? That sounds like exactly what I need to do.

Thanks

#!/bin/sh

MYROUTER=$(nvram get computer_name)

MOUNT_POINT="/mnt/$MYROUTER/DS-110J"

SHARE="\\\\DS-110J_address\\AC56U"

USERNAME="xxxxxxx"
PASSWORD="xxxxxxxxxxxx"

/usr/bin/logger -t "($(basename $0))" $$ "Martineau Mounting $SHARE on $MOUNT_POINT... [$@]" 

 
mount $SHARE $MOUNT_POINT -t cifs -o username=$USERNAME,pass=$PASSWORD

Thanks.. I'll try it out.
