Description:
 Socket Sentry is a KDE Plasma widget that
displays real-time network traffic on your Linux
computer. It shows you which processes are
communicating with which hosts, current data
transfer rates, protocols, and more. Socket Sentry
combines the best parts of tools like [b]iftop[/b]
and [b]netstat[/b] in a modern desktop interface
that\\\'s approachable and easy-to-use.

[b]Features:[/b]

[li]Monitor one or all network devices in each
widget[/li]
[li]See over 10 different stats and other
characteristics of each connection[/li]
[li]View all connections individually or group by
host and process/program[/li]
[li]Sort by any column with secondary sorting by
transfer rate[/li]
[li]Quick search box helps you find specific
connections[/li]
[li]Optional hostname lookup with configurable
subdomain depth[/li]
[li]Customizable filter rules using the pcap
expression language[/li]
[li]IPv6 support[/li]
[li]Efficient data sharing across widgets to
minimize resource use[/li]
[li]Configurable security for multiuser PCs[/li]

It\\\'s the right tool to answer all kinds of
questions about the software running on your
computer. For example:

[li]How many connections is my download manager
using? What\\\'s the throughput of each?[/li]
[li]What programs on my computer are phoning home?
How often?[/li]
[li]How much bandwidth does my streaming radio
service consume if I leave it open?[/li]
[li]What programs are the biggest bandwidth
hogs?[/li]
[li]Which video site delivers the best
throughput?[/li]
[li]Does my browser keep talking to the web server
after the page is loaded?[/li]
[li]My program seems frozen. Is it communicating
on the network?[/li]
[li]Is someone connected to my
SSH/Samba/FTP/CUPS/Web/Other server right
now?[/li]
[li]The network printer won\\\'t print. Is the job
being sent to it?[/li]
