Hi Paolo and all, here comes the next one. ;-)
I'm using the memory table plugin for port statistics. To regularily extract that information, I'm doing: /usr/local/bin/pmacct -c src_port -N "80;21;20;22;53;25;443;*" -r -p /tmp/pmacct_dport.pipe As I observed, the counter reset (-r) is done for each of the ports in the list. As long they are exclusive, there is no problem, it's important to know, though, that the * refers to the rest of the traffic, and not the total sum. But to make sure, that no packets are counted in the wrong bin, the memory table has to be locked as long as the port list is processed. Otherwise packets that arrive during processing with, for example, port 80, would also match the * and got reset, too. Is this handled correctly?
