Package: iftop
Version: 0.17-16
Severity: normal
iftop always chooses eth0 as the interface to listen on, even if no
traffic is flowing there. A much better choice would be the interface
associated with the default route in the routing table. If there is no
default route then it could fall back on eth0 or some other interface.
