+ntop is a tool that shows the network usage, similar to what the
+popular top Unix command does. ntop has been written in a portable
+way in order to virtually run on every Unix platform.
+
+ntop can be used in both interactive or web mode. In the first case,
+ntop displays the network status on the user's terminal whereas in
+web mode a web browser (e.g. netscape) can attach to ntop (that acts
+as a web server) and get a dump of the network status. In the latter
+case, ntop can be seen as a simple RMON-like agent with an embedded
+web interface.
