I’m looking for preferably a device, but I’ll settle for an application. I’d like to get an idea of what is out there. Something just to get a total count from what computer, And maybe by common ports.
I’m not looking for a detailed reporting like wireshark, unless wireshark can do summaries and be running for a whole month without issues.
Essentially, I just want an idea of where my monthly bandwidth is going and by what computers / devices. I.e. computer A does a lot of website traffic, computer B gets a lot of steam downloads, device C has got some virus setting out on an unknown port. Now to be clear, I would only know that Device C has some virus on it as the logs would show either lots of bandwidth on a unknown port which then gets be to investigate.
Being able to ignore / filter any traffic that stays behind the router would be nice. This computer as of this post has over a gig of traffic, but mostly to the networked drive I have, I’m really only interested in what uses internet bandwidth, and who’s using it… and if possible, what it is.
If you ask for some tools,maybe google/superuser is better for you.
If you ask how to program, you can use
Raw Socket.RawSocket is able to work as network sniffer. So you can get your networking bandwidth using.
