 +tcpdump is a data-network packet analyzer computer program that runs under a command line interface. It allows the user to display TCP/IP and other packets being transmitted or received over a network to which the computer is attached.[3] Distributed under the BSD license,[4] tcpdump is free software. Tcpdump works on most Unix-like operating systems: Linux, Solaris, FreeBSD, DragonFly BSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD, OpenWrt, macOS, HP-UX 11i, and AIX. In those systems, tcpdump uses the libpcap library to capture packets. The port of tcpdump for Windows is called WinDump; it uses WinPcap, the Windows version of libpcap. 
  
 +===== Justniffer =====
 +  * https://onotelli.github.io/justniffer/
 +  * https://github.com/onotelli/justniffer
 +Justniffer - Network TCP Packet Sniffer. Justniffer is a network protocol analyzer that captures network traffic and produces logs in a customized way, can emulate Apache web server log files, track response times and extract all "intercepted" files from the HTTP traffic. It lets you interactively trace tcp traffic from a live network or from a previously saved capture file. Justniffer’s native capture file format is libpcap format, which is also the format used by tcpdump and various other tools.
  
-tcpdump – Network Packet Analyzer+Reliable TCP Flow Rebuilding - The main Justniffer’s feature is the ability to handle all those complex low level protocol issues and retrieve the correct flow of the TCP/IP traffic: IP fragmentation, TCP retransmission, reordering. etc. It uses portions of Linux kernel source code for handling all TCP/IP stuff. Precisely, it uses a slightly modified version of the libnids libraries that already include a modified version of Linux code in a more reusable way. 
 +Optimized for “Request / Response” protocols. It is able to track server response time
  
-Tcpdump one of the most widely used command-line network packet analyzer or packets sniffer program that is used capture or filter TCP/IP packets that received or transferred on a specific interface over a network. It also provides a option to save captured packages in a file for later analysis. tcpdump is almost available in all major Linux distributions.+Justniffer was born as tool for helping in analyzing performance problem in complex network environment when it becomes impractical to analyze network captures solely using wireshark. It will help you to quickly identify the most significant bottlenecks analyzing the performance at “application” protocol level.
  
-~\ownCloud\zim\Bilder\DEF\artikel-linux-monitoring-tools\tcpdump.jpg+In very complex and distributed systems is often useful to understand how communication takes place between different components, and when this is implemented as a network protocol based on TCP/IP (HTTP, JDBC, RTSP, SIP, SMTP, IMAP, POP, LDAP, REST, XML-RPC, IIOP, SOAP, etc.), justniffer becomes very useful. Often the logging level and monitoring systems of these systems does not report important information to determine performance issues such as the response time of each network request. Because they are in a “production” environment and cannot be too much verbose or they are in-house developed applications and do not provide such logging.
  
-tcpdump will output a description of the contents of the packet it just captured which matches the expression that you provided in the command. You can also save the this data for further analysis. +Other times it is desirable to collect access logs from web services implemented on different environments (various web servers, application servers, python web frameworks, etc.) or web services that are not accessible and therefore traceable only on client side.

-For more tcpdump usage read : 12 Tcpdump Command Examples in Linux+Justniffer can capture traffic in promiscuous mode so it can be installed on dedicated and independent station within the same network “collision domain” of the gateway of the systems that must be analyzed, collecting all traffic without affecting the system performances and requiring invasive installation of new software in production environments.

 +Cacti is an open-source, web-based network monitoring and graphing tool designed as a front-end application for the open-source, industry-standard data logging tool RRDtool. Cacti allows a user to poll services at predetermined intervals and graph the resulting data. It is generally used to graph time-series data of metrics such as CPU load and network bandwidth utilization. A common usage is to monitor network traffic by polling a network switch or router interface via Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP).
  
-PCP+The front end can handle multiple users, each with their own graph sets, so it is sometimes used by web hosting providers (especially dedicated server, virtual private server, and colocation providers) to display bandwidth statistics for their customers. It can be used to configure the data collection itself, allowing certain setups to be monitored without any manual configuration of RRDtool. Cacti can be extended to monitor any source via shell scripts and executables.
  
-~\ownCloud\zim\Bilder\DEF\artikel-linux-monitoring-tools\pcp.jpg+Cacti can use one of two back ends: "cmd.php", a PHP script suitable for smaller installations, or "Spine" (formerly Cactid), a C-based poller which can scale to thousands of hosts.

 +  * http://dag.wiee.rs/home-made/dstat/ 
 +dstat - versatile tool for generating system resource statistics. Dstat is a versatile replacement for vmstat, iostat and ifstat. Dstat overcomes some of the limitations and adds some extra features. Dstat allows you to view all of your system resources instantly, you can eg. compare disk usage in combination with interrupts from your IDE controller, or compare the network bandwidth numbers directly with the disk throughput (in the same interval). Dstat also cleverly gives you the most detailed information in columns and clearly indicates in what magnitude and unit the output is displayed. Less confusion, less mistakes, more efficient.
  
-~\ownCloud\zim\Bilder\DEF\artikel-linux-monitoring-tools\zenoss.jpg+Dstat is unique in letting you aggregate block device throughput for a certain diskset or network bandwidth for a group of interfaces, ie. you can see the throughput for all the block devices that make up a single filesystem or storage system.
  
-Zenoss provides a web interface that allows you to monitor all system and network metrics. Moreover it discovers network resources and changes in network configurations. It has alerts for you to take action on and it supports the Nagios plugins. +Dstat allows its data to be directly written to a CSV file to be imported and used by OpenOffice, Gnumeric or Excel to create graphs.

 +===== Net-SNMP =====
 +  * http://www.net-snmp.org/
 +  * http://www.net-snmp.org/docs/man/
 +Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is a widely used protocol for monitoring the health and welfare of network equipment (eg. routers), computer equipment and even devices like UPSs. Net-SNMP is a suite of applications used to implement SNMP v1, SNMP v2c and SNMP v3 using both IPv4 and IPv6. The suite includes command-line applications to:
 +  * retrieve information from an SNMP-capable device, either using single requests (snmpget, snmpgetnext), or multiple requests (snmpwalk, snmptable, snmpdelta).
 +  * manipulate configuration information on an SNMP-capable device (snmpset).
 +  * retrieve a fixed collection of information from an SNMP-capable device (snmpdf, snmpnetstat, snmpstatus).
 +  * convert between numerical and textual forms of MIB OIDs, and display MIB content and structure (snmptranslate).
 +  * A graphical MIB browser (tkmib), using Tk/perl.
 +  * A daemon application for receiving SNMP notifications (snmptrapd). Selected notifications can be logged (to syslog, the NT Event Log, or a plain text file), forwarded to another SNMP management system, or passed to an external application.
 +  * An extensible agent for responding to SNMP queries for management information (snmpd). This includes built-in support for a wide range of MIB information modules, and can be extended using dynamically loaded modules, external scripts and commands, and both the SNMP multiplexing (SMUX) and Agent Extensibility (AgentX) protocols.
 +  * A library for developing new SNMP applications, with both C and perl APIs.

 +  * https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/monitorix 
 +Monitorix is a free, open source, lightweight system monitoring tool designed to monitor as many services and system resources as possible. It has been created to be used under production Linux/UNIX servers, but due to its simplicity and small size can be used on embedded devices as well.
  
 +It consists mainly of two programs: a collector, called monitorix, which is a Perl daemon that is started automatically like any other system service, and a CGI script called monitorix.cgi. Monitorix includes its own HTTP server built in (which is listening by default on port 8080/TCP) to see the statistics graphs, so you aren't forced to install a third-party web server to use it. Just point your browser at http://localhost:8080/monitorix.
  
-Zabbix+All of its development was initially created for monitoring Red Hat, Fedora and CentOS Linux systems, so this project was made keeping in mind these type of distributions. Today it runs on different GNU/Linux distributions and even in other UNIX systems like FreeBSD, OpenBSD and NetBSD.
  
-~\ownCloud\zim\Bilder\DEF\artikel-linux-monitoring-tools\zabbix-monitoring.png+It is currently in active development adding new features, new graphs and correcting bugs in the attempt to offer a great tool for daily systems administration.
  
-Zabbix is an open source infrastructure monitoring solution. It can use most databases out there to store the monitoring statistics. The Core is written in C and has a frontend in PHP. If you don’t like installing an agent, Zabbix might be an option for you. +===== vmstat ===== 
-* http://www.zabbix.com/+  * https://linux.die.net/man/8/vmstat 
 +  * https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vmstat 
 +vmstat (virtual memory statistics) is a computer system monitoring tool that collects and displays summary information about operating system memory, processes, interrupts, paging and block I/O. Users of vmstat can specify a sampling interval which permits observing system activity in near-real time.

-Nmon (stands for Nigel’s performance Monitor) tool, which is used to monitor all Linux resources such as CPU, Memory, Disk Usage, Network, Top processes, NFS, Kernel and much more. This tool comes in two modes: Online Mode and Capture Mode.+===== uptime ===== 
 +  * https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man1/uptime.1.html 
 +  * https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uptime#Using_uptime 
 +uptime gives a one line display of the following information. The current time, how long the system has been running, how many users are currently logged on, and the system load averages for the past 1, 5, and 15 minutes.
  
-The Online Mode, is used for real-time monitoring and Capture Mode, is used to store the output in CSV format for later processing.+===== mpstat ===== 
 +  * https://linux.die.net/man/1/mpstat 
 +  * http://sebastien.godard.pagesperso-orange.fr/ 
 +mpstat - Report processors related statistics. The mpstat command writes to standard output activities for each available processor, processor 0 being the first one. Global average activities among all processors are also reported. The mpstat command can be used both on SMP and UP machines, but in the latter, only global average activities will be printed. If no activity has been selected, then the default report is the CPU utilization report.
  
-~\ownCloud\zim\Bilder\DEF\artikel-linux-monitoring-tools\nmon.jpg+The interval parameter specifies the amount of time in seconds between each report. A value of 0 (or no parameters at all) indicates that processors statistics are to be reported for the time since system startup (boot). The count parameter can be specified in conjunction with the interval parameter if this one is not set to zero. The value of count determines the number of reports generated at interval seconds apart. If the interval parameter is specified without the count parameter, the mpstat command generates reports continuously. 
  
-~\ownCloud\zim\Bilder\DEF\artikel-linux-monitoring-tools\Nmon-620x383.jpeg+===== pmap ===== 
 +  * https://linux.die.net/man/1/pmap 
 +pmap - report memory map of a process. The pmap command reports the memory map of a process or processes. 
  
-nmon either outputs the data on screen or saves it in a comma separated file. You can display CPU, memory, network, filesystems, top processes. The data can also be added to a RRD database for further analysis. +===== ps =====

 +ps displays information about a selection of the active processes. If you want a repetitive update of the selection and the displayed information, use top instead. In most Unix and Unix-like operating systems, the ps program (short for "process status") displays the currently-running processes. A related Unix utility named top provides a real-time view of the running processes.
  
 +===== sar =====
 +  * https://linux.die.net/man/1/sar
 +  * http://sebastien.godard.pagesperso-orange.fr/
 +  * http://sebastien.godard.pagesperso-orange.fr/man_sar.html
 +sar - Collect, report, or save system activity information. The sar command writes to standard output the contents of selected cumulative activity counters in the operating system. The accounting system, based on the values in the count and interval parameters, writes information the specified number of times spaced at the specified intervals in seconds. If the interval parameter is set to zero, the sar command displays the average statistics for the time since the system was started. If the interval parameter is specified without the count parameter, then reports are generated continuously. The collected data can also be saved in the file specified by the -o filename flag, in addition to being displayed onto the screen. If filename is omitted, sar uses the standard system activity daily data file, the /var/log/sa/sadd file, where the dd parameter indicates the current day. By default all the data available from the kernel are saved in the data file.

 +  * http://collectl.sourceforge.net/ 
 +  * http://collectl.sourceforge.net/Documentation.html 
 + There are a number of times in which you find yourself needing performance data. These can include benchmarking, monitoring a system's general heath or trying to determine what your system was doing at some time in the past. Sometimes you just want to know what the system is doing right now. Depending on what you're doing, you often end up using different tools, each designed to for that specific situation.
  
-Logwatch is a log analysis system. It parses through your system’s logs and creates a report analyzing the areas that you specify. It can give you daily reports with short digests of the activities taking place on your machine. +Unlike most monitoring tools that either focus on a small set of statistics, format their output in only one way, run either interatively or as a daemon but not both, collectl tries to do it all. You can choose to monitor any of a broad set of subsystems which currently include buddyinfo, cpu, disk, inodes, infiniband, lustre, memory, network, nfs, processes, quadrics, slabs, sockets and tcp.

 +===== free =====
 +  * https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man1/free.1.html
 +free displays the total amount of free and used physical and swap memory in the system, as well as the buffers and caches used by the kernel. The information is gathered by parsing /proc/meminfo.
  
-Swatch+===== /proc file system ===== 
 +  * https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/filesystems/proc.html 
 +  * https://tldp.org/LDP/Linux-Filesystem-Hierarchy/html/proc.html 
 +/proc is very special in that it is also a virtual filesystem. It's sometimes referred to as a process information pseudo-file system. It doesn't contain 'real' files but runtime system information (e.g. system memory, devices mounted, hardware configuration, etc). For this reason it can be regarded as a control and information centre for the kernel. In fact, quite a lot of system utilities are simply calls to files in this directory. For example, 'lsmod' is the same as 'cat /proc/modules' while 'lspci' is a synonym for 'cat /proc/pci'. By altering files located in this directory you can even read/change kernel parameters (sysctl) while the system is running.
