Once BitMeter OS is installed on your computer you can monitor your connection usage either via a web browser, or by using the command line tools. The Web Interface displays various graphs and charts that show how your Internet / network connection has been used over time:

How can I make the Web Interface accessible from another computer?

The following command, executed from a Command Prompt/Terminal Window, will enable read-only remote access next time the Web Interface is started (remote users will be able to view the interface, but not change any settings):

bmdb webremote

To enable remote administrative access, use this command (remote users will be able to change settings and add/edit/remove Alerts):

To disable remote access, use this command

bmdb weblocal

Note that these commands don't take effect immediately, the web interface must be restarted first.
