You are wrong assuming a balance.  If they're identical that's the unusual
case.

Say you're viewing a web page...

http://www.whatever.com/pages.html --- so you're sending a few dozen bytes
with the headers.  Barely a blip in the bandwidth usage.

The page comes back, maybe it's 40-50K.  Fills the pipe for a few seconds,
then tails off.

Plus, your bandwidth limits themselves (the CIR - Committed Information
Rate) themselves may be different.

Subject: Re: [Ntop] Bandwidth Usage Question AGAIN


After 24 hours of running ntop 2.2 (sourceforge) on RH9 the stats still seem
to be a little fudged:

IP Traffic:
Local to Remote states: Used Bandwidth 2.0Mbps
Remote to Local states: Used Bandwidth 1.0Mbps

Now shouldn't these figures be exactly the same?  Or am i wrong in that
assumption.  I'm still trying to figure out how much this machine is
pushing.  Or is this is yet another problem with redhat?
