An old classic powerful network tool; Netwox (i.e. Network Toolbox with more than 200 tools) and Netwag (Tcl/Tk GUI) - https://ntwox.sourceforge.net/ and https://ntwag.sourceforge.net/

Howto Guide - https://anto.online/mastering-netwag-guide/

this is supposed to be an actually maintained terminal utility for viewing ss/netstat data

  • I was just pointing to another network tool used for all sorts of fine-grained networking jobs (eg. security testing and others) which might be helpful to others.

    It was created by Laurent Constantin (https://linuxsecurity.com/features/introduction-to-netwox-an...) for his own needs and hence the TUI/GUI is not polished. But it is simple, direct and gets the job done which is what is important. And it is a mature tool (hence no need for active maintenance) available in all Linux distros.
