Is it possible for the queue tx/rx bytes to be saved onto disk, so that upon reboot, they continue from the point they left off?

Basically, I have a need to monitor bandwidth, but it is unfeasible in my situation to use remote servers to send traffic flows to. My needs are simple, as I just need the total up/down on a monthly basis, but i'm struggling, as if the power goes out at any point in the month, I don't know where each persons usage stands anymore.

If this is not possible, is there anything out there that can poll the RB to give each queues total tx/rb bytes? That way I could write a simple program to poll the RB's several times a day.

Thanks in advance to any help/suggestions

Jimbo.

什么是不可能的ue totals saved to disk. You would need to write a polling system (using API or SSH scraping) or a push system (script collecting data and FTP that off the router disk). Search in forums and the Wiki to see what other people may have written.

You could also use a system such as MRTG or Cacti to monitor queue bytes and/or packets via SNMP if you are using queue trees (simple queues have no SNMP at this time).

Thanks for the reply.

Is it me, or is that a seriously overlooked feature? It cannot be difficult for Mikrotik to implement, so if anyone from Mikrotik is listening, can I request that feature please, also, to be able to export individual simple queues via snmp would be invaluable.

I've trawled the forums for several days now and have yet to come across something which would help, but I'll keep looking.

Thanks
