How to view the internet download size of each system in a LAN

saagar · 06-14-2010, 01:24 AM

Hi friends,
Our LAN is connected to internet via leased line, and it is getting slow at peak times. We doubt someone might be downloading files of huge size. Instead of SSH-ing into each system and finding out the download size (ethstatus), is it possible to view from a network bandwidth monitoring software??

I tried iptraf, but it's not giving what I want.

Please help.

there are plenty of tools in backtrack live distro. I hope you will find something useful (i think you are looking for something similar to wireshark)
