Monitoring TCP/IP traffic

2004-03-04 Thread Francisco Reyes
As of a few days ago my DSL modem activity light rarely ever goes inactive
for long.

I am looking for any program anyone could recommend to monitor what's
going on.

Yesterday I added log options to all my IPFW rules to see if I could find
anything suspicious. I added log options even to pass rules and the amount
of activity in the DSL modem seems much more than what is reported by
IPFW rules.

The machine in question is a 4.9 Stable (as of Dec 29) and it acts as a
gateway to my other machines.

Is there is anything like TOP for TCP/IP?
I saw ntop in ports, but it seems only analyzes LAN/internal subnet.

tcpdump(1) might be what you want.

PWR.

yes, ntop :)

You need to tweak its configuration t make it listen on the tun0 interface.

Take a look at ngrep too. and snort fr logging suspicious activity.

Hm, does 'systat -netstat' maybe already do what you want?

 net/iftop

Thanks to all that responded.
As I was trying different utilities and wasn't seeing anything on my
outside card I then decided to disconnect my gateway machine. The high traffic
continued. I called my ISP and they told me to run tcpdump and send
it to them. A few minutes later the activity was way down. Looks normal
now.

I still plan to go through all the tools and learn them, but whatever the
problem is/was it was not inside my machines/network.
