IFStatus was developed for Linux users that are usually in console mode.

It is a simple, easy to use program for displaying commonly needed / wanted statistics in real time about ingoing and outgoing traffic of multiple network interfaces that is usually hard to find, with a simple and effecient view.

IFStatus project is the substitute for PPPStatus and EthStatus projects.

I have decided to write this application for a simple cause: I could not find any console based interface monitor with simple features like graphical statistics.

Here are some key features of "IFStatus":
Multiple interface support
Dynamic graphic statistics
Conectivity check
Current Transfer
TX and RX indicators
Mbox e-mail check
IP Address
Online time

Requirements:
curses (at least 4.2 version)

A CRT screen handling and optimization package. [project website]

libstdc++

Please note that to compile IFStatus from source on Redhat based systems you should have *-devel RPM packages of the before mentioned libraries installed.

What's New in This Release:
Some bugs with graphical updates and the Interfaces::CheckState() method were fixed.
