check data downloaded
I have a proxy server in my college and I use the Internet through this proxy server. Recently there has been put a limit on the data that we can download to 50Gb per month.
How can I determine the amount of data that I have downloaded so that I do not happen to cross this limit? Are there any commands or tools in Ubuntu? The issue is to find the data downloaded not the data surfed. |
maybe ifconfig will help:
Code:
[schneidz@hyper ~]$ ifconfig |
actually i want to know data download usage for the entire month. ipconfig will give for a day or a session
|
just grab the total from if config as above and add it to a running total at the end of evry session/day.
If the uni has imposed the download limit they should mail you etc when you approach it surely? |
