You can integrate Ntop with rrdtool. This will give you graphics that looks like MRTG. Marlon On Mon, Jun 02, 2003 at 03:50:55PM -0400, Sam Evans wrote:
You might take a look at 'ntop' from www.ntop.org -- It's an excellent network overview tool that would provide exactly what you are looking for. Plus, it's free. :) On Mon, 2 Jun 2003, Soeren Ziehe wrote:Hello, this is not strictly for pentesting. However the people on this ML should know an answer, I'd guess. We're experiencing severe network disruptions of varying duration and at varying times. Mechanical or electric failures in the network have been ruled out as far as possible. We would like to have a "look" at the traffic on the network. However we do /not/ want to look at each and every packet. We're interested in the distribution of protocols and distribution of traffic. Therefore the usual tools like Ethereal, tcpdump, Etherpeek et al. are not meeting our needs. Does anyone know a tool which samples the traffic and presents summary statistics on network traffic? Seeing a high percentage of "file sharing" would not really surprise us. But how to get an overview without being lost in the surge of packets such traffic causes? I know of Etherload, which is a DOS tool, that provided said services. A modern successor should be the tool we're hunting for. Robinton -- I've asked for kindness and ultimate truth.
