Something that turned out to be surprisingly difficult to find: How does one learn the actual data rate (in Bytes) of a linux network interface? There are lots of tools that give the packet rate, starting with good old "netstat -i". It's interesting and useful info. But what I'm trying to find is the total byte (or byte/sec) throughput of some interfaces. I know it's gotta be there somewhere, probably in one of those directories under /proc, but I don't seem to be guessing the right keywords to find it. Anyone know off the top of their head? I've considered using tcpdump, but that seems like a huge cpu load to get data that's probably just lying about somewhere ... -- Key: 09 f9 11 02 9d 74 e3 5b d8 41 56 c5 63 56 88 c0 -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean. _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [hidden email] http://lists.blu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
