Bandwidth Guard for Shadowsocks

Bandwidth Guard for Shadowsocks

The idea is inspired by this post.

Bandwidth Guard is used to monitor network traffic, and, force stop shadowsocks once bandwidth limitation is exceeded. It is implemented for Shadowsocks-libev but can easily modified for other Shadowsocks variants.

Usage

First you need to install and start vnstat. Run the following commands as root:

$ apt install vnstat vnstati
$ svnstat -u -i eth0
$ systemctl enable vnstat

Next, create a cron job for Bandwidth Guard.

$ crontab -e

# add this line
@hourly /path/to/bandwidth_guard.pl >> /var/log/bandwidth_guard.log 2>&1

And fuch the GFW.
