Anyone recommend a command-line network bandwidth tool they use on
fedora? I'm talking about something to show MB/sec across the local
machine's network interface(s), and perhaps more (breakdown by protocol,
etc.). I can't find any pre-packaged ones in fedora (bad search
criteria?) but have seen ntop, ipband, and iptraf mentioned on the
web...
Thanks
ntop will do more than you want. It will give you the cumulative
bandwidth on your whole network. Instantaneous bandwidth is more
problematic. But if you run it only for short time it may work.
