Dashboard

The Dashboard is the default landing page. It surfaces what’s happening on the wire right now.

Top metrics

Four counters across the top:

Upload

Total cumulative bytes sent since the service booted.

Download

Total cumulative bytes received since the service booted.

Connections

Currently-active sockets (TCP + UDP).

Rules

Number of rules with enabled=true and a healthy sync_state.

Counters reset when the service restarts. They are NOT a long-term data-usage meter — that’s what Quotas is for.

Rolling 60-second window. Teal line is upload, green line is download. Hovering shows the instantaneous up/down values at that second.

The chart polls /api/v1/throughput every second. If the line goes flat, the service stopped sampling — check the troubleshooting page.

The largest talkers, sorted by Total (upload + download) descending.

Click an app name to drill into the App detail screen, which has the per-app rate timeline + the option to create a rule pre-filled with that path.

NetClamp’s own binaries are hidden from this list so you can’t accidentally rate-limit your own firewall.

Historical bandwidth (anything older than 60 seconds in the chart). For week-over-week data you want quotas, or pipe the SSE stream into Grafana/Prometheus.
Inactive apps. The "Top apps" table only lists processes with non-zero network activity in the current sampling window.
Per-rule hit counts. That’s on the Rules page.

Focus the global search box (when one exists for the screen).
