I don't think Squid can do this for you, but some simple netfilter (iptables)
rules (assuming you're using Linux) would do the trick:
iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --sport 80
iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --sport 443
iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --sport 20
iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --sport 21
(These rules assume that the machine itself if making the connections - if
it's actually a router instead then change INPUT to FORWARD).
The command "iptables -Z" will reset the packet & byte counters to zero.
The command "iptables -L -n -v -x" will show you how many packets & bytes
have been matched by each rule - in the above examples, http, https, ftp
data, and ftp control.
Add as many rules as you like for different port numbers.
Antony.
