I would be willing to do that for sure, I suppose everything would probably be in Netflow data, it's just pulling it out and reporting on it. I did consider Netflow or Sflow but the reporting tools seemed a bit hard to find, whereas something that was more targeted at web filtering/proxy seemed to have more reporting options.

Mikrotk can send the data, at least, but not process it. Then you won't have issues with proxy servers. -----Original Message----- From: Public [mailto:public-bounces@talk.mikrotik.com.au] On Behalf Of Paul Julian Sent: Wednesday, 10 January 2018 10:51 AM To: public@talk.mikrotik.com.au Subject: [MT-AU Public] Internet Usage Reporting device Hi all, Happy New Year BTW ! I am looking to put together a solution which we can provide as a diagnosis service for our customers to help them analyse what is happening on their Internet connection. There are a number of products which can give you information on such things like PfSense, Untangle, BandwidthD etc, but basically I am after something that can report things to the customer, or us actually so that we can then put together a report and recommendations. The sort of things we want to report on are: - Top talkers - Bandwidth used - Application usage We are not interested in tracking end user usage or anything, it's more just so that the customer knows what their Internet is getting used for and how much. I would really love to put this into a Mikrotik Routerboard but can't see how it's possible. I know we will need some type of proxy running like Squid or something, but it's the information gathering and reporting that are important. At this point my best solution seems to be a NUC running windows with Untangle on it and a mAP-2nD or something to redirect the traffic transparently to the NUC Proxy. Has anybody done a project like this before or does anybody have any better suggestions than what I am thinking of at the moment ?
