Warren,
Sorry for won't be clear;
Lets me try explain better.
As long I open the iftop (passing an interface as parameter)
it's show all traffic passing through the respective
interface; but shortly after, it starts decreasing
the traffic that value, until remains only:
current bandwidth usage by *pairs of hosts*,
this means, only hosts *directy connected*
with the current host (the freeBSD).
As this host is a router, most of the traffic that
pass through it, isn't directy connected
with it, it's *just forwards* this traffic.
So, as I wanna monitoring *whole bandwidth*, passing
through the interface, the iftop does not show
it (all the time, just when I start it); just the traffic of
pairs of hosts.
Is possible monitoring all traffic passing through
the interface, instead only the traffic of the
pairs?
Thanks!
