ipac is a package which is designed to gather,
summarize and nicely output the IP accounting
data. ipac make summaries and graphs as ascii
text and/or images with graphs.

ipac...
        - is for Linux
        - runs on top of the iptables or ipchains tool
        - needs certain kernel parts compiled in



HOW DOES IT WORK?

  ipac consists of one perl script and one C program:

  - fetchipac, executed from cron once in a while, reads
  the current ip accounting data assembled by the kernel
  and stores it into a database

  - ipacsum summarizes the data from a set of records
  from the database and, optionally, replaces these records
  by one. It displays the values as a simple table containing
  the sums, as png graph pictures or as ascii graph pictures.
