mtr - My Traceroute

Combines ping and traceroute into interactive tool. It's often already included in the most of distributions.

Usage:

$ mtr wp.pl

Key bindings:

  • d - to switch Display modes:
  1. tracert+ping,
  2. Cisco lost packets
  3. Latency

iotop

$sudo iotop -aoP
  • -a Will show accumulated output
  • -o Will only output
  • -P Will only show processes instead of threads

The %iowait is the time spent waiting on I/O. Using the Debian package, you must enable the stat collector via the /etc/default/sysstat config file after package installation. To see current utilization broken out by device, you can use the iostat

  • -t for timestamps
  • -d for disk statistics
  • -D to specify the exact devices to report
  • 60 to average over 60 seconds. The display is updated every second, but only once per 60 seconds a new line will be started.
  • -c can report wait IO percentage, which in most cases is related to the CPU waiting for data from the disks

Ncdu - NCurses Disk Usage

Ncdu is a disk usage analyzer with an ncurses interface.

NCurses Disk Usage

Discus - Disk Space Usage

sudo apt install discus	#Debian/UBuntu, it takes ~60kB
sudo yum install discus	#RHEL/CentOS
sudo dnf install discus	#Fedora 22+

netstat - network statistics

In CentOS 7 net-tools package has been replaced by iproute2 therefore in course to use netstat needs installing:

[piotr@vmcent7 ~]$ sudo yum install net-tools

$ sudo netstat -pant

tcptrack

$ tcptrack -i <interface>
$ tcptrack -i eth0 "dst port 80"

Pktstat

Pktstat displays all the active connections in real time, and the speed at which data is being transferred through them. It also displays the type of the connection, i.e. tcp or udp and also details about http requests if involved.

$ sudo pktstat -i eth0 -nt

nload - network load

nload #use left right arrow to switch view between interfaces
Linux nload

sar -n KEYWORD <every_sec> <count> - report network statistics

This reports various network statistics. For example: number of packets received (transmitted) through the network card, statistics of packet failure etc.,. “1 3” reports for every 1 seconds a total of 3 times.

$ sar -n DEV 1 10

KEYWORD can be one of the following:

  • DEV – Displays network devices vital statistics for eth0, eth1, etc.,
  • EDEV – Display network device failure statistics
  • NFS – Displays NFS client activities
  • NFSD – Displays NFS server activities
  • SOCK – Displays sockets in use for IPv4
  • IP – Displays IPv4 network traffic
  • EIP – Displays IPv4 network errors
  • ICMP – Displays ICMPv4 network traffic
  • EICMP – Displays ICMPv4 network errors
  • TCP – Displays TCPv4 network traffic
  • ETCP – Displays TCPv4 network errors
  • UDP – Displays UDPv4 network traffic
  • SOCK6, IP6, EIP6, ICMP6, UDP6 are for IPv6
  • ALL – This displays all of the above information. The output will be very long.
