| Does anyone have any recommendations on network bandwidth monitoring for a linux server? Been looking at bandwidthd and mrtg. |

| Cacti would be another one. I haven't seen it being used for a single server envirnoment but its worth a shot. |
| |||||
| How many servers? RRD Tool, MRTG, Cacti - they all work ... It depends on what you need |

| At the moment it's just for one server running Flash Media Server but we will end up running multiple servers in the future. |

| Have a look at the solutions mentioned. The thing to be aware of is that processing the data has an overhead. So if you're pushing large amounts of traffic your bandwidth logging / processing might have a negative impact on your server's performance if you're not careful ie. keep an eye on how much of an impact it has. |
