we're trying to nut out some possible wayward traffic on some of our networks
that seem to be artificialy overloading our ascend max access routers.
All our traffic goes via a Linux ethernet router/bridge and we're trying to
find the best way to count the data statistics of all going through it.
We do have a script that we can run that loops through EVERY single ip we have
on our systems (nearly a full b class) but this brings the linux ethernet
router/bridge to a snail crawl as having something like 3000 or more ipfwadm -A
commands seems to overload it.
We have looked at tcpdump, and although that says where and to the data is
going, it as far as we can see doenst show the amount of bytes/octets in each
line/packet thats listed.
Any ideas?
Regards
adam
