Measure Bandwidth Usage Per Web Site

[Sven]

On an IIS 6 Web Server with multiple ASP.NET Web applications (sites), how
can I accurately measure the total bandwidth used by each site? I need to
know total bandwidth for the current day, week, month, quarter, and year.

Thanks!

Hi,

You can use the IIS log files. If i remember correctly, this is however
not logged by default, so you will need to enable logging of it. In IIS
Manager, right click the website and click Properties. Click on the
Properties button for Logging. Click the Extended Properties tab and check
"Bytes Sent (sc-bytes)".

Now you can use any log analyser you would like (a list of some of them is
available here:

)

You can also use Log Parser:

Hi

You can find that information by analyzing the IIS logs files.

You can either use the Logparser tool from Microsoft or some other log
analyser software.
I can recommend Awstats (awstats.sourceforge.net/) which is free and
opensource.
