  • Any open source equivalent of Fing/Fingbox?
    I have a Ubiquiti Ethenret and WiFi network and their software will give me the discovery capabilities, and my custom OpenBSD router gives me the traffic inspection features (using Darkstat). Source: over 2 years ago
  • Data Usage
    A friend of mine is a tech wizard, and he hooked me up with a home built router that uses pfSense, which comes with a program that does what you're asking for - darkstat. Source: about 3 years ago
  • Anyone monitoring outgoing traffic?
    I do have darkstat monitoring traffic on my egress interface. I also block access to UDP port 53 from untrusted hosts (I will change it to silently redirect to my official unbound DNS servers later). Source: over 3 years ago
