Sorry about forgetting the subject earlier, it was a slip of the mouse....I''ve descided to us
2007-12-24 20:01:00
I've descided to use a combination of the SE Toolkit and ntop.
Thank you for the 30 replies saying "MRTG!!!", but I don't want a
web interface, snmp setup, etc just to do quick peeks at inferface loading.
I needed a middleground between MRTG/Cricket and netstat.
The SE Toolkit's "netstatx.se" example is pretty close, so I'm thinking
about dusting off my K&R C book and playing with SE alittle more intimately
for a final tool, in the meantime I'm using/playing with ntop.
I should point out that the best suggestion was to log into the switch,
but the network guys hate that, and it's not worth the time to ask 'em
for help.
Thanx for all the responces.
