gnetload is a load meter software for measuring network and ISDN load. It shares similarities with xisdnload.
One of the most noteworthy features of this software is the inclusion of the devstata agent. This agent runs on machines with interfaces that must be monitored and periodically sends status information over the network. This is a great way to keep tabs on the overall performance and health of a network.
Additionally, the gnetload network load meter project also includes a display program called gnetload that collects and displays the data gathered by the agent. This program can be run on the same machine as devstata, or it can be used to report on the state of a dedicated router on another machine.
An awesome feature of this software is its ability to feed data to more than one instance of gnetload. This is done through multicast or broadcast addresses. Also provided is a menu for taking network interfaces up and down.
To use this software, simply execute the command "./gnetload [-I] [-t tickscale] [-g geometry] [-d] [ip]:port" and enjoy the benefits of fast and accurate network monitoring!
What's new in this release? Firstly, the config script was updated to build with GTK2 and GCONF2 where available. Aside from this, there are no other code changes.
