I was very interested in this option as well (which is why I am on this
list).  I was not able to find a good solution with iftop but I did find
another utility called 'bwm-ng' that has an output to csv option which
suited my needs.

Here is an example of how I used it:

bwm-ng --count 0 -o csv -I eth0 -T rate -u bytes -t 1000 > yourfile.csv

Thanks,
Andy

Hi,<br>
<br>
is it possible to log to a file?<br>
<br>
iftop &gt; mylog.txt<br>
<br>
produces a file, but containing lo senseful data.<br>
