and average bytes per second.

Have you tried vnstat? It will give daily/weekly/monthly totals of
incoming/outgoing traffic by interface (i.e. eth0, eth1). Basic info
and download (if not in Debian repository) found here:
http://humdi.net/vnstat/.

Hey Travis,

Thanks a lot, vmstat indeed is exactly what I was searching for.
Especially in conjunction with vmstati and vmstat.cgi or the vmstat php
frontend.

greetings,
jonas
