I installed iftop the other day and since then, there's been a connection that has been on the list. It doesn't show a port number, which has me confused. It's a "small" connection, and it looks like this:

If I add the totals, it slowly goes up, being up to 8.91MB at this point.
The lack of port indicates a non-UDP, non-TCP protocol. This usually means ICMP. My guess is that it's ping, either to or from your host.
