Description-en: top-like utility for network connections usage
pktstat displays a real-time list of active connections seen on a
network interface, and how much bandwidth is being used by what.
.
It partially decodes HTTP and FTP protocols to show what filename is
being transferred, as well as X11 application names. Entries hang
around on the screen for a few seconds so you can see what just
happened.
.
It also accepts BPF expressions.
