NTOP – Linux “top” for Node.js part 2, now working directly from CLI-only
For what it's worth, there used to be a package in many Linux repositories called "ntop" [1] but became less popular when they went commercial. There is still a community version but I have no idea how popular it is any more. It was quite popular prior to projects like PiHole. Perhaps the older ntop has fallen out of favor so maybe there won't be any confusion.

easiest way to see monthly data usage?
One of the comments suggests using a managed switch that supports port mirroring, and installing a Flow collector on the connected system. Google netflow collector for software options. Something like ntop may work. See... HowTo Monitor Traffic in SMEs and Home Networks: A Primer
