...is taking up my bandwidth?!
This is a CLI utility for displaying current network utilization by process, connection and remote IP/hostname
what sniffs a given network interface and records IP packet size, cross referencing it with the /proc filesystem on linux or lsof on MacOS. It is responsive to the terminal window size, displaying less info if there is no room for it. It will also attempt to resolve ips to their host name in the background using reverse DNS on a best effort basis.
yay -S what
cargo install what
Windows is not supported at the moment - if you'd like to contribute a windows port, it would be very much welcome.
```
USAGE:
what [FLAGS] --interface
FLAGS: -h, --help Prints help information -n, --no-resolve Do not attempt to resolve IPs to their hostnames -r, --raw Machine friendlier output -V, --version Prints version information
OPTIONS:
-i, --interface
Note that since what sniffs network packets, it requires root privileges - so you might want to use it with (for example) sudo.
what also supports an easier-to-parse mode that can be piped or redirected to a file. For example, try:
what -i eth0 --raw | grep firefox
Contributions of any kind are very welcome. If you'd like a new feature (or found a bug), please open an issue or a PR.
