On the HFC / CMTS side of things we have IPDR which I believe has some open source collectors out there. I'm not sure that IPDR is used much outside of the HFC world though.
IPDR was my first thought as an alternative to SNMP. Is its accuracy comparable? It’s been included into TR-069, so it’s theoretically available to telcos, too. And usage-based billing is part of it’s purpose. Not sure I’d want to use NetFlow/IPFIX, since by nature it tracks flows, not bits, and I don’t want to record flows. But I’d be interested in hearing others’ experience. Lee
