darkstat

Post by geekgirl » Tue Apr 19, 2011 9:24 pm

Went through the following thread and post:
viewtopic.php?f=16&t=2860&p=39632
viewtopic.php?f=3&t=2424&p=35273#p35273
and can't find any other relevant info in the forum.
I'd like to understand what this means:
Yes. Unfortunately, the wireless AP driver clashes with some of the tcp data, and, since we don't have the sources for the AP driver, we've had to turn off some of the data streams.
particularly, the "clash" part and the "turn off some of the data streams part".

My issues:
1. I'm not using wireless at all (AP turned off), only Ethernet for LAN clients.
2. "in" statistics all zeros, as previously reported.
3. Actual statistics for "out" are strange. max would be typically be 0.x - 1.2kb/sec, and then when I saturate upstream to test, it'd show something like the following, under "last 60 seconds":

Code: Select all

out	
	min:	0.1 KB/s,	avg:	3.1 KB/s,	max:	24.8 KB/s
then

Code: Select all

out	
	min:	0.1 KB/s,	avg:	6.7 KB/s,	max:	26.2 KB/s
These maxes are impossible, because according to http://www.speakeasy.net/speedtest/ and during the intervals I was saturating the upstream:
Upload Speed: 105 kbps (13.1 KB/sec transfer rate)
or at best:
Upload Speed: 113 kbps (14.1 KB/sec transfer rate)

I wait 2-3 minutes, then look at "last 60 minutes":

Code: Select all

out	
	min:	0.0 KB/s,	avg:	0.2 KB/s,	max:	4.2 KB/s
Which is weird, as you'd expect max there to include the last from prior minutes (24-26kb/sec according to the info quoted above)

What gives?

If you're not using wireless, and you need full darkstat statistics, then use the non-wireless 4mb-flash firmware.

PS: you haven't told us which firmware version you are using.

Surely you don't expect us to remember everything you've posted in this forum? :o

With the 1350A wireless firmwares, you'll only ever get the stats on one interface. I'm afraid nothing much can be done about it.
