Sigar network speed

Question

this lib is kind of awesome to get cpu, ram and other staff. However, i can't figure out, how to get the network speed. that means. how much data is sended and received throw the network-cart in a amount of time? is there a way to give me this data?

is this probably what i am searching for?

Tcp stat = sigar.getTcp();
stat.getInSegs() + " segments received"
stat.getOutSegs() + " segments send out"

if there is no way in sigar, is there a other lib to use?

thank's for help
