Is it possible to show bytes transfered over time in real-time on an active connection on the command line? I can do netstat and get the bytes at that time, but wonder if it can be adapted to show total number of bytes transfered.

Depends what you mean by connection. If it is ppp connection, then use ifconfig. If you are referring to TCP connection, the you can use iptraf. If you want for a specific connection and to analyze the traffic use wireshark.
