Today My pal rrajbe was talking to me about a network monitoring application in Kaspersky Anti-virus. At that time I thought of doing a project of that network monitoring in Open source.

Duanedesign gave some suggestions regarding that and I am in an oscillation of selecting a language to do that project.

I will find out soon

Project Overview at the planning stage

An application that monitors the bytes sent and received in a network by mentioning each webpage name and the downloads made by it. If there is an application, we can run it, find how much it downloaded and can ban sites to never load

It must refresh after a second so that the data transfer must get updated. Same pages must get the transfer amount in a single link

Step 1:

Have to monitor the bytes sent and recieved

Step 2:

Have to monitor which application undergoes data transfer

Step 3:

If it is a download of upload, It must fetch the name of the file involved in it

Step 4:

If it is a web page, it must update it to the database, first must check whether the link is already present. If not have to add it on the database.

Step 5:

This must update the db per second. And it must get cleared

• Whenever the internet gets disconnected

  Daily

  weekly

  or per hour

(It must be the choice of the end user)
