bmon is a command-line bandwidth monitor and rate estimator that captures network interface statistics and displays them visually. It offers an interactive curses interface plus programmable text output for scripting.
Use cases
- monitor network bandwidth usage per interface
- estimate real-time network traffic rates
- debug network statistics from the terminal
- script network stats collection with text output
- watch interface RX/TX rates live
When to choose
- you need a lightweight terminal-based bandwidth monitor on Linux or macOS
- you want scriptable text output of network statistics
- you prefer an interactive curses UI without a GUI
When to avoid
- you need historical graphing or long-term metrics storage
- you want a graphical desktop network monitor
- you need per-application bandwidth attribution
