Traffic stats by device?

@reckless: My parents’ brand new Vizio P-Series TV (which is not set up to stream anything, they have an Apple TV) pings a server 10x more than any other device they own https://twitter.com/reckless/status/1081787683515490305/photo/1

While reading the above tweet, I was wondering is there any UI on OpenWrt (or command) which can break down which devices are talking to the cloud the most?

iptraf-ng can be used from console.
First option is IP traffic monitor, select the wan interface and sort by byte or packet count.

Both options really good thank you both!

Some feedback after some usage.

I found that nlbwmon acually was maxing out my cpu at 100% after a couple of days of usage, so I think it might be safer to be using iptraf-ng.

Strange, I don't see such issue "maxing out my CPU at 100% after a couple of days of usage"
