Description of problem: Vnstat shows my network traffic for today as 580.37GiB (down) and 15.55GiB up, with an average rate of 79.23Mbit/s. This is not correct, since it has been running for about 5 hours only, and my network speed is 10Mbit/s (down) and 1Mbit/s (up). The figures are clearly not correct. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): version 1.10 How reproducible: Encountered issue on a clean install. Steps to Reproduce: Install vnstat, create the initial configuration, and start the vnstat service. You need to give it permissive selinux policy for it to work. Actual results: monitoring works fine, but produces incorrect statistics Expected results: monitoring works and produces plausible statistics Additional info:
Is this only on the first day wrong or is it wrong every day? Have you tried to set the maximum bandwidth in the config file? I am using it on 10 and 4 GBit/s and have not seen anything like that yet.
I checked, and the maximum bandwidth was actually 0 in the config. I fixed that, deleted the database for eth0, created a new one, and restarted the service and it seems to be working working fine now.
