I even can try to write ipa.conf (but didn't test it), let 100, 200, 300 be IP Firewall rules which counts ingoing traffic from ISP: rule isp-ingoing { ipfw = 100 200 300 info = Ingoing traffic from ISP maxchunk = 1G # This allows to monitor traffic before limit 20G. # limit 10G { # byte_limit = 10G # zero_time = +M # reach { # exec = /bin/echo "10G reached" | /usr/bin/mail admin # } # expire { # expire_time = 0s # } # } # # This is 20G/month limit. limit 20G { byte_limit = 20G zero_time = +M reach { exec = /sbin/ipfw add 10 deny all from me to my-isp exec = /bin/echo "20G reached" | /usr/bin/mail admin } expire { expire_time = +M exec = /sbin/ipfw del 10 exec = /bin/echo "20G reached limit expired" | /usr/bin/mail admin } startup { if_limit_is_reached { exec = /sbin/ipfw add 10 deny all from me to my-isp } } } } I didn't test this config and it can contain errors!
