How can i track how much bandwidth my Droplet has used so far? Basically i have a 2TB of network bandwidth per month, and i want to check how much of this 2TB i have used. Please note i am referring to how much bandwidth(data) has been used so far, and not how much bandwidth (speed) that the server used at any point of time.
Thanks in advance
