al@18911 1 vnStat is a console-based network traffic monitor for Linux and BSD that keeps
al@18911 2 a log of network traffic for the selected interface(s). It uses the network
al@18911 3 interface statistics provided by the kernel as information source. This means
al@18911 4 that vnStat won't actually be sniffing any traffic and also ensures light use
al@18911 5 of system resources.
