The nice thing is it takes snmp feeds and can be used for a range of things (e.g. I used it to monitor printers and their daily usage).

Subject: ISED - bandwidth
Hello all,
This is probably one of those questions that you don't know where to
begin with the answer because there is so much base knowledge missing.
But is there a free or inexpensive way to monitor network
usage/bandwidth? I'm wanting to try to get a better handle on why our
wait time for response from the server or Internet varies. I want to
find out where, exactly our bottlenecks are. I've got an Internet
bandwidth monitor with the ISP
We are PC, have wireless mobile and hardwired labs, run Windows Server
2003 and Win XP Pro, Cisco switches, firewall and modem. And an old
building where some of the network cabling is 10 years old.
So any good ways to tell if the network traffic is too much?
thanks
sherry
