Network Graph Configuration

Settings

If you want to change some of the default behaviour of the network graph widget, you can configure some things in the config file.

Field	Type	Functionality
show_packets	Boolean	Displays packet rate and average packet size info.
legend_position	String (one of ["none", "top-left", "top", "top-right", "left", "right", "bottom-left", "bottom", "bottom-right"])	Where to place the legend for the network widget.
use_bytes	Boolean	Displays the network widget using bytes. Defaults to bits.
use_log	Boolean	Displays the network widget with a log scale. Defaults to a non-log scale.
use_binary_prefix	Boolean	Displays the network widget with a binary prefix (e.g. kibibits) rather than a decimal prefix (e.g. kilobits). Defaults to decimal prefixes.
start_zeroed	Boolean	Zeroes out the total network usage ("All") counters such that it shows the total usage since the app is started, rather than the total usage since boot.

Filtering Entries

You can filter out what entries to show by configuring [network_graph.interface_filter] . In particular, you can set a list of things to filter with by setting list, and configure how that list is processed with the other options.

For example, here we are ignoring any entry with a name that matches the regex eth0.*, or specifically virbr0.

[network_graph.interface_filter]
# Whether to ignore any matches. Defaults to true.
is_list_ignored = true

# A list of filters to try and match.
list = ["virbr0", "eth0slab"]

# Whether to use regex. Defaults to false.
regex = true

# Whether to be case-sensitive. Defaults to false.
case_sensitive = false

# Whether to require matching the whole word. Defaults to false.
whole_word = false
