I developed this monitoring script after repeatedly needing to troubleshoot connectivity issues with Ollama, a local AI model runner. While working with multiple models and clients simultaneously, I needed to quickly identify which connections were active, which ports were being used, and whether connections were properly establishing or terminating. Standard task managers didn’t provide this network-specific detail. This tool offers real-time visibility into exactly which addresses and ports Ollama (or any process) is communicating with, making it significantly easier to diagnose configuration problems, optimize connection handling, and ensure proper network resource utilization without resorting to complex packet sniffers or enterprise monitoring solutions.
