Just a simple plugin to monitor bandwidth usage and Line Utilization on a IPCOP Firewall using the Nagios check_by_ssh plugin. Note: You can also use it to monitor any Linux distro on which you can install vnstat. (The instructions included are for IPCOP, but should be pretty similar.)

No fault of the author of this plugin, thanks for trying, but check_traffic_limit is a much better plugin! I wish I had found it before rewriting this plugin. http://exchange.nagios.org/directory/Plugins/Network-Connections%2C-Stats-and-Bandwidth/check_traffic_limit/details
unfortunately vnstat seems to be unavailable for ipcop 1.4 and above. I am looking at poss solutions but as a noob to nagios may take some time. Thanks anyway
