Networking :: Displaying Network Usage Stats
Jul 13, 2010
A small "mom and pop" WISP would like to provide account usage information to customers.Basically, when a person connecting to the WISP's web site is a customer with an IP address from within the WISP's subnets, a link would appear on the web page where customers could read total bandwidth usage (daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly totals and averages) and public IP address. Information could include the top five bandwidth URLs visited; graphs or charts of usage; and usage during specific periods, such as business hours (8AM-5PM), evening hours (5PM-10PM), night (10PM-8AM), and weekends (10PM Friday-8AM Monday).
The WISP has installed cricket (http://cricket.sourceforge.net) and rrdtool (http://oss.oetiker.ch/rrdtool). The next trick is to grab and format the data for customers.I'm not looking for answers like "look at xyz package." Helpful responses will include a rudimentary outline to solve the problem. That is, "xyz package" might indeed be what the WISP needs, but some guidance how to use xyz is needed to move down the road.I have no experience with this type of thing. I appreciate responses from people who are experienced.

I have a network connection between 3 computers sharing the same net bandwidth with the same router (modem), I wanted to know how much every one of this network taking from the bandwidth, I want an easy program like switch-sniffer (see the pic) to scan the network and tell me how much every one taking from this network in real time.

I am on Fedora 13, and have a Radeon HD 3870 graphics card. Using the standard open source graphics driver. I am doing some video editing and watching some large movie files (5gb+) so I would like to see if my graphics card is actually doing anything to help. I'm up against a brick wall though - I can't get the GPU usage, memory, or temp. It should do something through GPU hardware video decoding with motion compensation etc. But I can't tell if it doing anything because I can't find anyway to test it.I've enabled direct rendering in mplayer but I don't know if it is doing anything as I have no way to test.

How do I find out the network usage ie the total amount of data is transferred in or out of my computer (openSUSE 11.2 and gnome) and keep a track of the total network usage?

I'm relatively new with Ubuntu- but I'm pretty experienced otherwise with computers. I just installed Ubuntu on my Intel machine and it seemed to be running a little slow so I checked the System Monitor and found that there were 2 CPU's being displayed (I only have 1) and that one or both were maxed out at 100%. What I have for hardware is one Intel Atom 1.6Ghz processor, with 2GB of ram. When I check what resources are running, none of them seem to be taking up that much memory (firefox being the most at 60mb).Any advice on what might be going on here? How is it displaying 2 CPU's when I only have one?

I wrote a small kernel module which essentially resets the NIC counters and a small user space program to ioctl this.

recently my server become a little slow and lazy, so I started a small investigation what's going on and found out, that there is some problem with network.All processes which uses network are able to use 99% of CPU time when they got any requests. First time i thought it's only a bad configured Apache but after some research I found even FTP or SSH does it if they have to do something more (for example getting data to another server using rsync).So far I wasn't able to find a cause of this. No new software installed, only updated every few days. I have another server which have the same config, same software, same hardware and is updated in same days. But this one works without any problem. I think it's probably hardware (LAN) leaving me to it's creator. Is there some way how can I test if it's really LAN or just something bad happened to the system?
Also there is another issue - maximum speed dropped down to 20-30kB/s for both download or upload.It's Debian Lenny 2.6.22-6 if you need to know.

I was wondering how do you slap a packet analyzer like Wireshark somewhere between all the computers in a house and the router, so you can tell what websites are being accessed? I mean websites, specifically. I'm not trying to monitor bittorrent, IRC or other things yet - I'll get to that later. I just want to break this insanely complex task into smaller bites for now.Also, since my ISP has bandwidth caps but does not have a means for consumers to monitor total network usage, I'd like to figure out how to use Wireshark to do that as well. This, I am assuming, is easier when wireshark is running on the pipeline going into the router.

I have looked for and found several tools to show a system's total network usage. I have not, however, been able to find any that show this information in the context of individual processes. Do any such tools for linux exist?

I have a home PC which connects through internet via a Zyxel ADSL router. I use Fedora 14 as my one and only operating system and sometimes I am seeing the LEDs of my modem blinking very fast which means that something is downloading. I want to know which application download what on my PC. Is there any tool in Fedora that can show which application uses my network?

I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 and all was well on my home network until a household member decided to get a laptop and jump on my network. All he does is watch videos on ....., download crap from P2P sites, and maybe even watch p0rn. Is there something I can use to control this or maybe set my router to give him the minimum resources available? Also, I want to block him from downloading junk from P2P sites or places he might get a virus. I'm on a D-Link DGL 4500 Router.

I've run into a problem gathering usage for my xen virtual systems. With my old model I used to gather all network usage via my cisco devices using the the counters for each port. Each system had it's own port on the switch, and I tracked network usage accordingly. Now that I'm using xen for virtual systems, and multiple vm's share the same switch port, i'm not exactly sure what my best option is for tracking usage.
I thought I may be able to setup vlans on the switch, and bind each vm to a different vlan using vconfig... but it seems like there has to be a better solution than that.

I have a third party program (tightvnc) which I want to monitor and detect if it loses a connection with a client. I don't care if the client has the program open but isn't doing anything with it, I only want to know if the actual TCP connection is lost.
Since TCP takes forever to die on it's own I was thinking the best way to detect if a connection is lost is by bandwidth the bandwidth on the tcp port allocated to the VNC connection. Are there any tools built in to redhat (RHEL 5.2) which I could use to do this? Since I don't have full control of the operating system I would prefer to use built in tools rather then trying to get a new tool installed.

i recently started sockets programming. In the process i began to look for relevant network information about my computer and realized that ifconfig wasn't displaying the same information that resides in my /etc/network/interfaces file. On the interfaces file my IP address is 192.168.1.109 for interface eth0 but ifconfig displays 192.168.1.101. I was under the impression that ifconfig got its information from the interfaces file but clearly doesn't. I tried re configuring the device with ifconfig and then disabling and re enabling the device with ifdown and ifup so that the device updated its information but it didn't.

I have setup NTOP on Centos 5.5 and am not seeing traffic that I am supposed to be seeing. We have a product that uses many different services including ssh. I have this system as a target on mirrored ports but am not seeing any ssh connections or activity when I look at the host machine that is connected to the target ssh client and vice versa. When I look under TCP/UDP Service/Port Usage it is not displaying all the services that are being used especially SSH. What could it be?

I am trying to figure out why the remote X performance of our RedHat 5.3 system is so bad. We have tried using X (Gnome session) from several different X Servers (Windows Xceed, Windows XWinPro, Linux Xnest - both Fedora 11 and Centos 5.3 and Mac OS Xnest) and the system is barely usable. I have monitored the network traffic on the RHEL system and it goes up to 6MB/s at some points, which seems a bit too high for X net traffic?I have disabled ipv6 and any ip_tables modules and that has helped a bit, but it's still not very good.I suspected the network hardware and driver, but I cannot see how that would cause network traffic problems.I wonder if there are any X Server network settings I might check, or whether trying XFCE would be a better option over Gnome. If so, do I have get the xfce group from a CentOS Repo, or is there something better suited to RHEL?

While running some live tests last week I saw an odd situation where netstat appeared to be displaying the wrong PID and process name for TCP connections. I'm trying to figure out if this is just a strange netstat bug or if it could indicate something odd is happening with our software.
We have a main program which establishes a number of connections, including connecting to a JMS server and listening/accepting a TCP connection. The main program also creates a child process which it uses to communicate with another server. On at least three occasions we saw a situation we saw netstat reporting all the expected TCP connections (correct ip/port for both source and destination), however the child process, instead of the main, was listed for the PID. The main process was still running but netstat no longer reported any TCP connections established by the main program. The main program continued to function correctly, the JMS communication continued to work and we believe the other TCP connection was functioning correctly despite the program supposedly not having any TCP connections.
I'm wondering if this could simply be a bug and/or obscure functionality of netstat that I don't understand which would cause netstat to report the child process as 'owning' the parents TCP connections. I don't know how this would happen or why the parent would continue functioning despite the problem otherwise.

I just wanted to use a network bandwidth usage monitoring application. Scenario: I am using an EV-DO based USB broadband modem with a limited GB plan. For additional data usage they charge per MB. Currently I use either wvdial (mostly) or pon to start the connection. So if there is any network monitoring application which could log time used and data used for the session, it would be great. Actually debian has too many different network monitoring applications, But I am not sure which one suits well for this purpose.

I didn't setup our old system but that server has since been retired due to hardware failure, but we have some new webervers, and a new postgtres database server in place which I need monitoring. Some items include database size, transactions per second, io stats, memory monitoring, or as the DBA put "anything I can get". We had used CACTI in the past for these items, but I didn't do the setup and sondering if that is what is recommended, or something else. I am looking at groundwork open source which include nagios, etc. but figured I would consult the uforums since all these servers are running userver 9.x and 10.x .

Just wondering if there is a way to show the stats of the hard drive(s) in the computer mainly the current read and write transfer rates. Similar to the network graphs that show the Download and Upload speeds, but concerning the hard drive(s) in the computer. I know you can monitor the hard drive temperature, but I haven't seen anybody monitor the stats for the hard drive.

I have a linux box that I'm using to mount a windows 7 share with samba or cifs. The mounting itself goes fine, but directories with more subdirs or files do not seem to have all the content they actually have.
For example, viewing my music folder shows only first 37 subdirs. The ls says "total 49", which is the correct amount, but the listing itself shows only 37 first in alphapetical order.
On the other hand, my wallpaper folder contains 122 files. Ls claims there is 41872 and displays only 70.
Adding the mount option noserverino increases the listed files or dirs, but it still does not show them all.
I've tried to enable debug printk level, but dmesg doesn't show anything interesting.
I've tried to change values in /proc/fs/cifs, but it does not seem to have any effect.
I've tried changing samba package. So far I've tested with 3.5.7, 3.5.2, 3.5.4 and now 3.5.8.
My distribution was yesterday slackware 13.1. Today I upgraded to 13.37 (with samba 3.5.8) but the problem persists.
I've tried with kernel versions 2.6.35.12, 2.6.38.2 and 2.6.37.6.
