Find network transfer size for Java RMI Application

  • 772

We've developed a client/server solution using Java RMI. We wish to know the amount of data being transfer over the wire from server to client so we can judge bandwidth requirements.

I've created a capture of the traffic using wireshark, however is there a way to find the total size of all the packets?

If wireshark isn't the best solution, can someone please suggest a better application?

Thanks

    Yeap, in Wireshark just go to statistics (top menu bar) and choose 'conversations'. There go to the IPv4 list (showing you host to host conversation stats, find your server<->client conversation) and look at the 'Bytes' size... it'll even show you client>server and server>client packets/bytes.

  2. First, apply the needed filter to your captured packets so that you can see only the relevant packets.

    Then, go to "Statistics" -> "Summary". You can find useful information. I think you want the "Bytes" value.
