OperatingSystemMXBean and network usage and limit information

[Asaf Mesika]

Hi,

I've searched through the various mailing lists, but couldn't find a
suitable one so I'm posting it here.

I would like to have the ability to know from an application the current
network usage and limit (relative to host or cgroup).

I have seen the class  OperatingSystemMXBean that is provided by the JDK. I
was wondering if the idea of adding that information to this bean has been
considered in the past.

Currently, the best option I found, which is operating system-specific
code, is to use the /sys/class/net/ files.

Thanks,

Asaf
