Bandwidth Usage Billing

[Scott Gerhardt]

IPFM works well for tracking usage (/usr/ports/net-mgmt/ipfm).  You can 
parse the logs using perl or whatever to get cumulative statistics.

SCR_IPFM works well for generating graphical usage summaries on a 
daily/monthly/yearly basis  (/usr/ports/net/scr_ipfm).
