VPN Traffic

Good day. Is it possible to include VPN traffic into logs? This information actually very important for me, because VPN connection uses ISP and Internet Connection, and WinGate traffic is lower than ISP traffic.

What type of information are you after ? A byte count of traffic sent across the VPN link or details of the files / operations performed ?

I don't think there is a way to do this currently - but, if you give me a rough idea of the types of information you think would be useful, I can put it onto the wishlist .

Thank you for a quick answer! I belive that sent\received bytes is the most important information, because when I have it, I can divide traffic into 3 cathegories:
1. WWW (POP and so on) traffic by users.
2. VPN traffic
3. Some unknown traffic

And when I have a bill from my ISP, I can easily determine, whether my ISP counting my traffic up, or everything's fine and I have no leaks of Internet traffic.

I don't think there is a way to count traffic in WinGate itself for the VPN.

With some of the planned upgrades to the system this will become possible, but until such a time the easiest way to achieve this would probably be to take a count of the total traffic for your adapters.

Unfortunately though, this won't give it to you based on individual items. (VPN vs HTTP vs POP3)
