[Shorewall-users] static NAT

Tom,

Thanks for the link....The main reason I would like to have this
detail is because my monthly bandwidth
as gone up significantly in the last month (streaming media....cha
ching$$).
As a result, I need to track my transfer individualy on 13 different
IP''s.

it appears there is not quick way to track packets/bytes on a alias
interface.

Is it possible to create an iptables chain (lets say net2alias) that
would show packets/bytes on each alias?
(much like net2fw and loc2fw).

Cheers,

I''ve never tried since I''m uninterested in having the traffic
analyzed
that way.

There is a contributed tool at ftp://shorewall.net/pub/shorewall/mrtg
that may help; I''ve not used it personally.
