Bandwidth consumed over a month, listed out by Interface - Fortinet

We currently have a Fortinet in our hosted environment that is shared by over 100 customers. Each customer is broken down by vDOM, all into their individual containers. A monthly report showing how much data is consumed would be awesome. We can get reports now that shows some info, but not the total amount of data passed by each interface (vDOM).

    I think LM is going to be the wrong tool for this if the goal is to count bytes.rn2 reason:rn

    1. rn
    2. rollup of data means that data is averaged as the month goes onrn
    3. I dont think LM is storing the discreet datarn
    rnI would look at adding RTG2 to your monitoring and measurement platform. Have it walk your tree for the Fortigate then start storing discreet data in a database (PostreSQL and MySQL supported), then just:rnselect sum(column name) where id=custid;
