Network Monitoring and/or Tracking

[Ramsin G]

Um... I was just wondering what kind of network monitoring or tracking
software could be used, by a business to track messages and packets sent in
the LAN. (windows 2000)

Any good software????

There's plenty of software out there, free and paid,
depending on what it is you want to monitor. Here's a good
start: MRTG, Etherpeak, Etherreal, and also, Network
Performance Monitor that comes bundled with Windows, or
better yet, I believe the Engineers Edition has a big
brother called Orion.

Orion:
Runs as a service.
Web Interface with permissions per user.
SQL backend.
Report feature.
Get access to the underlying data for further analysis via
the web.
