Presumably your WAN router (2600,3600,7X00) is plugged into a 
switch (5000-6000). Span the port over to a Sniffer. Oila. 

That's a simple way to do it. If your environment is more
complicated, spans sessions are precious, etc....there
are other ways to accomplish the same thing--tapping,
etc.

Hello...


	I'm trying to find an easy(er) way to find the local users
hogging a T1 line.  I've used netflow with ntop and ip accounting.  Both
of those were time consuming and the results were hit and miss.  The
problem is too many source<->destination pairs.  I really don't care
about the
remote location, only the local one.   Any ideas?

Let's face it, there's no Hollow Earth, no robots, and
no 'mute rays.' And even if there were, waxed paper is
no defense.  I tried it.  Only tinfoil works.
