Hi Luca, Thanks for the prompt reply. What we are doing is extracting NTop data to display some charts on a report page. So, the counter I am talking about is amount of data (uploaded + Downloaded) by all IP Addresses combined on the network that I am spoofing on using a hub.
The attached files will explain it more clearly. NTop interface shows the data (for 1st 2 IP Addresses) above 4 GB fine. But, the report page that we are generating using the data extracted from NTop database by parsing following pages is showing incorrect data. http://localhost:3000/dumpTrafficData.html?language=python&view=long http://localhost:3000/dumpData.html?language=txt&view=short We are using this method because from the forums we got a feeling (when we started the project) that "rrd" tool to extract NTop data is a bit buggy. Please let us know if you think of a better way of doing things and if someone can fix the bug. Thanks again for your time and effort.

You can export data via xml,perl etc. 2. couters should be pretty large. What is the counter you're talking about?
