Description-en: promiscuous mode traffic accountant
pmacct is a tool designed to gather traffic information (bytes and number
of packets) by listening on a promiscuous interface or for Netflow data,
which may facilitate billing, bandwidth management, traffic analysis, or
creating usage graphs.
.
Data can be stored in memory and queried, displayed directly, or written
to a database; storage methods are quite flexible and may aggregate totals
or keep them separate.
