Hi, Sniffer Pro (nai) has some good protocol distrubition reports. May be a bit heavy for what you want through. winter -----Original Message----- From: Soeren Ziehe [mailto:robintonat_private] Sent: Tuesday, 3 June 2003 4:17 AM To: PEN-TESTat_private Subject: network statistic tool 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. Still waiting for the answer. -- Sich zu Tode zu arbeiten ist die einzige gesellschaftlichanerkannte Form des Selbstmordes. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
