Hi,

I would like to measure the amount of traffic my webcam is sending.
What is the best way to do this?
I tried iostat command, but i do not see the webcam traffic back.

Kind regards,

Marco

Rather than monitor the USB I would be more prone to monitor the network , using something such as Nagios here are some tips that could get you on the right path.
