XWall and MRTG

 

XWall has an interface to collect real time statistic data that can be used to feed another program which then creates a graphic out of the data.

The state-of-the-art program for this purpose is MRTG (Multi Router Traffic Grapher)
MRTG generates HTML pages containing GIF images which provide a LIVE visual representation of XWall's data.
More info on MRTG at http://oss.oetiker.ch/mrtg/

 

Below are some samples from a live XWall: a Compaq Double PIII 900Mhz, 512MB RAM, 36GB SCSI Raid 5,  that processes app. 90000 messages with 10GB a day.
