Bandwidth Ninja (bwninja)
A modern replacement for iftop
Why?
- Colors!
- More easily readable UI
- Can track all interfaces
- Less overhead (uses eBPF to collect metrics, and does not need to copy and process packets in userspace)
Install
pip install bwninja
bcc
bwninja requires python3-bpfcc which does not seem to have a correct package in pip/pypi.
See the official install documentation here: https://github.com/iovisor/bcc/blob/master/INSTALL.md
Run
bwninja requires root access to the network interfaces.
bwninja # bwninja will try to escalate itself.
python -m bwninja.tui # same. if bin script was not installed
sudo bwninja # will work only if bwninja was installed as a system package
