In a previous article about 2 programs that you can use to collect network statistics: iptstate and pktstat, on the article I’ve received comments on nethogs and iptraf, and so I’ve tested them.
The goal of both applications is to give to the user information of the actual state of the network, so how much bandwidth is used and which process are using it.
So, I have already been using vnstat monitoring tool to keep a track of my Internet usage stats for some time. Recently, I started looking for a real time network bandwidth monitoring tool.
NetHogs is a small ‘net top’ tool. Instead of breaking the traffic down per protocol or per subnet, like most such tools do, it groups bandwidth by process and does not rely on a special kernel module to be loaded.
So, I think my search for a live network bandwidth monitor finally ended with this screenlet, netmonitor. Bmon and vnstat were working fine, but I was looking for something that can be present all the time on the screen without hindering other apps. A Screenlet was indeed the best option to go for. For those who are not aware of screenlets, they are widgets for Gnome-Desktop.
I have Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.x server. How do I find out and groups network bandwidth usage by process under Linux operating systems? How do I find out what programs are using network bandwidth under Linux operating systems?Read answer to: "Linux: See Bandwidth Usage Per Process With Nethogs Tool"
I'ved look on google for something and I apologize for posting this but I haven't found anything that suites my needs...
I need a program that can monitor a specific computer's bandwidth, how much bandwidth that program is using, and (as a bonus, don't really need this) the port number the application is using.
I need it to be able to monitor one computer and provide lots of detail on that one c
In a networked environment, such as SOHO, is there any tools that can monitor the network bandwidth usage based on the computer's IP or mac address? So that we can know which user has the highest bandwidth usage. If possible also come out statistics of each computer usage based on IP or mac address.
Afternoon gents,
I'm trying to monitor and graph the currently used bandwidth by Apache, I've been trying to use mod_status with /server-status and just parsing this specific row:
16.1 requests/sec - 34.4 kB/second - 2193 B/request
But unfortunately that's an average value, which means that over time it will basically grind to a halt.
I want to monitor my bandwidth usuage for wired as well wireless devices on my network.
Is there any tool, preferably one that does not use a master or agent concept or requires snmp on every device I want to monitor?
I was searching and found ntop but it is not good enough as it has many limitations.
