Is there a way to measure how much network traffic particular app generates?
For example skype, or web browser? I know SysGuard in kde4 shows network traffic per interface at particular time. But I am interested in per-application stats.

nTop plus 100 others I'm sure. I'm sure even with pf, ipfw, iptables, et al: there's a way to permit everything but do accounting. I use ntop daily, but I'm just a novice at others so am just assuming there. What type of data you want/need vs. how big of footprint/resource requirements will drive your decision.

If you're wanting something quick and simple to monitor, `systat -netstat` would probably be best. It lists by address and port, but if you run sockstat you get a list of which programs hold which sockets. On 8/17/2010 1:45 PM, Gary Gatten wrote: nTop plus 100 others I'm sure.

There are a number of tools. Something like ntop presents a nice graphical interface and a graphical report. For a CLI type tool, Argus is very nice http://nsmwiki.org/index.php?title=Argushttp://nsmwiki.org/index.php?title=Argus ---Mike Yuri ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org Mike Tancsa, tel +1 519 651 3400 Sentex Communications,m...@sentex.net Providing Internet since 1994www.sentex.net Cambridge, Ontario Canada www.sentex.net/mike ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
Re: Is there a way to measure how much network traffic particular app generates?
Its not clear if you require real time stats or not so, I would like to jump in and join the discussion by suggesting to capture the bulk traffic, then filtering and dumping to another capture. Then use wireshark/tshark's built-in stats to get the throughput. Anyway, I would go down the pf+labels+pfctl+pftop road for pseudo-RT On 8/17/10, Yuri y...@rawbw.com wrote: For example skype, or web browser?
