Why would 40MB from the internet to your machines and 8MB from your machines
to the internet be unexpected?

 

As Gary said, having the same values would be the unusual situation.

No, that's not it. I'm not using netflow, no. But I meant the total amount
of traffic(that includes both up and down, which should be reversed from
each perspective but the same nontheless) differs. Also, remote hosts that
have not been contacted in a while tend to disappear which is exactly the
type of behavior --sticky-hosts is supposed to prevent, no?

I currently have ntop running on a small LAN's gateway to the internet. I'm
interested in knowing two things, which local hosts are using the most
bandwidth? And which remote hosts cause the biggest uses in bandwidth. I
live in a country where bandwidth caps on connections are very low(we have
3GB up and 3GB down per month). And I'm trying to collect this info so that
we can better adjust are usage patterns so that we don't exceed our caps too
early in the month(which has been happening too often lately).
