These days it apparently has become important again to monitor how much traffic one uses. Otherwise you might end up with pre-internet-era link speed (thanks to capital t here in Germany). So lets configure a (running) munin instance to monitor the bandwidth usage of your AVM fritz box (7390).
-
Download avm-fritzbox-wan-traffic from github or munin-monitoring directly
- You might have to change '$host' to something resolvable
-
Move avm-fritzbox-wan-traffic to e.g. /usr/local/share/munin/plugins/
-
apt-get install php (if it ain't installed yet)
-
ln -s /usr/local/share/munin/plugins/avm-fritzbox-wan-traffic /etc/munin/plugins/avm-fritzfox-wan-traffic
-
Add “[avm-fritzbox-wan-traffic] \ user nobody” to /etc/munin/plugins-conf.d/munin-node
-
Restart munin-node with “service munin-node restart”
- If you happen to run freetz, make sure upnp does not get removed (“Removal patches” > “Remove UPnP (igdd/upnp)” and “Other patches” > “Disable igd/upnp”)
