iptraf and bwm-ng and iptables can be used to monitor bandwidth on linux systems.<br><br>bwm-ng is a cmd line tool thats a bit like top. Will show per interface statistics.<br><br>You can also you iptables to LOG packets to & from a ip:port on your local machine.<br>
# To log packets to and from a COD server on <a href="http://10.0.0.1:28960">10.0.0.1:28960</a> try this:<br>iptables -A OUTPUT -p udp --sport 28960 -s 10.0.0.1 -j LOG<br>iptables -A INPUT -p udp --dport 28960 -d 10.0.0.1 -j LOG<br>
<br>iptables --list -v -n will show total system bandwidth moved though the linux network stack for the different chains.<br>If you look at the first and second column of this display you see number of packets and bytes tagged by that rule.<br>
use iptables -Z INPUT & iptables -Z OUTPUT to zero out all the counters.<br><br>The other thing you can do is use tcpdump to record network traffic to a file then use ethereal/wireshark to figure out whats going on.<br>
<br>I assume 25Kb/s per player for COD4/5, Depends on settings.<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">

Hi all,<br><br>I am not an ISP, just someone with a dedicated server for our clan.<br><br>I would like to know if it is possible to measure the actual bandwidth being used by (for instance) 1 gameserver. (we are running more). I'm using CentOS 5. Are there any tools out there doing this?<br>
