Hi all,
I have written a little script that measures throughput based on taking
snapshots of the proc fs counters (/proc/net/ip_fwchains) for an ipchains rule
and using the deltas and a sliding window to determine the average throughput.
I notice the counter in the proc fs has place for 9 digits. Does this mean the
counter will wrap at 999999999 or some other defined number?
I would like to be able to deal with the fact that the counter may wrap while
measuring throughput and deal with it correctly.
Ciao
Charl
