If you only want to monitor, you can use iptraf, It's very powerful. — PersianGulf, Apr 21 '15 at 19:44

I compiled the last nethogs from the github repo and I found that they added UDP too:

nethogs -h

-C : capture TCP and UDP.

just download the master folder from github and do make to test it...

Thanks, this made it show traffic more realistically for me. It shows Zoom's traffic though as root unknown UDP. – SaTa Oct 02 '20 at 20:05
Excellent. I was wondering whether a certain computer would be getting the UDP heavy load and it does... I can see it reaches 2Mb/s on that port as well. – Alexis Wilke Jan 01 '21 at 23:31

You can use ntop:

ntop - display top network users

Also :

ntop shows the current network usage. It displays a list of hosts that are currently using the network and reports information concerning the (IP and non-IP) traffic generated and received by each host. ntop may operate as a front-end collector (sFlow and/or netFlow plugins) or as a stand-alone collector/display program. A web browser is needed to access the information captured by the ntop program.

I only found ntopng in www.ntop.org. It's difficult to install and use. I quit. The application might have changed. — Rick, Mar 26 '23 at 15:47
