Measure the test taker's knowledge about network performance tools in Linux.

There are a lot of Network Tools on Linux. How can I select a name-filling tool based on actual needs? Here is a brief introduction:

Observe the network traffic:
"Sar-n DEV 1 5" can calculate the network flow rate on each NIC:

# Sar-n DEV 2 5
 
...
02:47:12 IFACE rxpck/s txpck/s rxkB/s txkB/s rxcmp/s txcmp/s rxmcst/s
02:47:14 lo 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00
02:47:14 eth0 2.51 0.00 0.17 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00
...

Ptraf is a powerful tool for observing the network flow rate. It allows you to observe the network flow rate step by step, from the hardware layer (NIC), to the network layer (IPv4, IPv6), to the transmission layer (TCP, UDP etc .), until each pair of socket pair.

Observe the network connection status:
"Netstat-a"
This is a traditional tool, but it cannot handle massive network connections. Therefore, we recommend that you use ss for hosts with large-scale network connections.

Tcp 0 0 *: 5901 *: * LISTEN
...
Tcp 0 Protocol bj71s060.chn.hp.com: ssh 16.169.16.67: 52681 ESTABLISHED

"Ss-a" lists all network connections. Ss is especially suitable for hosts with massive connections.
If the "-p" option is added, the corresponding process number can be displayed.

# Ss-

LISTEN 0 128: 38246 :::*
ESTAB 0 184 16.187.252.58: ssh 16.169.16.67: 52681

Observe the static statistical value:
"Netstat-I"

# Netstat-I

Ifconfig shows a small number of statistics at the NIC level, including the number of packages, collision, and errors:

# Ifconfig eth0
Eth0 Link encap: Ethernet HWaddr00: 19: BB: 5B: 07: 34

The information displayed in "ip-s link" is similar to the following:

# Ip-s link

"Netstat-s" provides statistics under various protocols. Some statistical values such as retransmit are very useful. Only "netstat-s" can see:

# Netstat-s
