trace route
- mtr (my traceroute / traceroute 2.0)
real-time speed
(#: needs root permission, $: does not need.)
- bmon (graph); multi-interface
- nload (graph)
- unit : (k)bit
- min, max, avg, total
- (avg is the same as nethogs)
- slurm (graph);
- $ slurm -i wlan0* nethogs
- # sudo nethogs wlan0
- pid, user, program
- CPU-consuming
- (stable, the same as avg of nload)
- ifstat
- scrolling text
- iftop (current graph)
- # sudo iftop -i wlan0
- unit : (k)bit
- Reverse-DNS (don't like it , use 'n' to toggl)
- dstat
- scrolling text
- // all stat of system
- ntop // TODO, how-to
- sar // all stat of system (cpu/net/ram/io) (see: sar )
capture
- tcpDump + tcpTrace
- http://fasterdata.es.net/fasterdata/network-troubleshooting-tools/tcpdump-tcptrace/
- tcptrace.org
- ipTraf (looks better than tcpdump)
- nGrep //netGrep
- netsniff-ng.org (zero-copy, pacp)
- DAG + DPMI and sunny's modified tools
For windows, use Wireshark. For localhost in windows, use RawCap+Wireshark.
other
- mrtg
- trafshow (trace traffic flow in hex mode)
- htop (top ++)
