### 6.5 tinc top

The top command connects to a running tinc daemon and repeatedly queries its per-node traffic counters. It displays a list of all the known nodes in the left-most column, and the amount of bytes and packets read from and sent to each node in the other columns. By default, the information is updated every second. The behaviour of the top command can be changed using the following keys:

`s`

  Change the interval between updates. After pressing the `s` key, enter the desired interval in seconds, followed by enter. Fractional seconds are honored. Intervals lower than 0.1 seconds are not allowed.

`c`

  Toggle between displaying current traffic rates (in packets and bytes per second) and cummulative traffic (total packets and bytes since the tinc daemon started).

`n`

  Sort the list of nodes by name.

`i`

  Sort the list of nodes by incoming amount of bytes.

`I`

  Sort the list of nodes by incoming amount of packets.

`o`

  Sort the list of nodes by outgoing amount of bytes.

`O`

  Sort the list of nodes by outgoing amount of packets.

`t`

  Sort the list of nodes by sum of incoming and outgoing amount of bytes.

`T`

  Sort the list of nodes by sum of incoming and outgoing amount of packets.

`b`

  Show amount of traffic in bytes.

`k`

  Show amount of traffic in kilobytes.

`M`

  Show amount of traffic in megabytes.

`G`

  Show amount of traffic in gigabytes.

`q`

  Quit.
