===Installation===

===Installation for Koozali SME v10 ===
 +
 
 +
You need the EPEL repo
 +
yum install smeserver-extrarepositories-epel
 +
 
 +
Now install vnstat:
 +
yum --enablerepo=epel install vnstat
 +
 
 +
Next a configuration entry and unit file
 +
config set vnstat service status enabled access private
 +
mkdir -p /usr/lib/systemd/system/vnstat.service.d
 +
nano /usr/lib/systemd/system/vnstat.service.d/50koozali.conf
 +
 
 +
Paste this and save/exit:
 +
 
 +
[Unit]
 +
Description=Vnstat global service for Koozali SME Server
 +
 +
[Install]
 +
WantedBy=
 +
WantedBy=sme-server.target
 +
 
 +
Add service key:
 +
 
 +
config set vnstat service status enabled access private
 +
 
 +
And Upgrade/Reboot for good measure:
 +
signal-event post-upgrade
 +
signal-event reboot
 +
 
 +
Are we running:
 +
 
 +
systemctl status vnstat
 +
 
 +
Lets look at the data:
 +
 
 +
                      rx      /      tx      /    total    /  estimated
 +
eth0:
 +
      Mar '24      4.36 MiB  /  22.12 MiB  /  26.48 MiB  /  40.00 MiB
 +
        today      4.36 MiB  /  22.12 MiB  /  26.48 MiB  /      37 MiB
 +
 
 +
vnstat --iflist
 +
vnstat -i eth0
 +
 
 +
By hour/week/month
 +
 
 +
vnstat -h/w/m -i eth0
 +
 
 +
eg
 +
 
 +
vnstat -w -i eth0
 +
 
 +
Remove unwanted DBs and stop monitoring the interface
 +
vnstat -i dummy0 --delete --force
 +
 
 +
This could be templated:
 +
cat /etc/vnstat.conf
 +
