Also, 8168 driver does not exist. ~# find /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/net/ethernet/ -name *816* /lib/modules/3.16.0-4-amd64/kernel/drivers/net/ethernet/realtek/r8169.ko The network device ~# lspci |grep Ether 03:00.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd.

There are many tools for network monitoring but you can do this with a simple bash script. #!/bin/bash time=”1″ # one second int=”eth0″ # network interface while true do txpkts_old=”`cat /sys/class/net/$int/statistics/tx_packets`” # sent packets rxpkts_old=”`cat /sys/class/net/$int/statistics/rx_packets`” # recv packets sleep $time txpkts_new=”`cat /sys/class/net/$int/statistics/tx_packets`” # sent packets rxpkts_new=”`cat /sys/class/net/$int/statistics/rx_packets`” # recv packets txpkts=”`expr $txpkts_new – $txpkts_old`”…
