It mostly monitors NFS client traffic (NFS requests); it also monitors the NFS reply traffic from a server in order to measure the response time for each RPC.NFSwatch was written by Dave Curry of Purdue University (davy@ecn.purdue.edu) and Jeff Mogul (mogul@decwrl.dec.com) of DEC WRL.
For more details on nfswatch, see the man pages or just try it. It is highly recommended.
