Re: How to get network usage statistics
sFlow gives some more statistics from all the different OSI layers. I am especially interested in how much of the total traffic is citrix generated, and if there are any p2p protocols in use.
Check out sflow.org.

Re: How to get network usage statistics
one would only allow you to connect to one switch at a time which was a bit rubbish but i also found
http://www.openxtra.co.uk/freestuff/nmap-xtra.php
nmap-extra (free windows version of nmap which is free for linux)
haven't had too much of a play as i dont have any sflow compatible devices at home but will be playing with it this morning at work.
let me know what you think.

Re: How to get network usage statistics
Ntop looks promising though. The problem with it is to enable sflow in the switches. What I understood, it doesn't do it automatically. You have to do the SNMP SET commands to enbale sFlow by yourself.
It is not a huge problem to write a script to do it. But our both switches are quite critical in 24/7 operation. I rather not do any automatic SNMP hacking on them yet.
Anyway, this is how I think you do it: http://www.plixer.com/files/sFlow-ProCurve2800_and_5300.pdf
I could be completely wrong though, since I have not played around with it yet.
If anyone has any success stories, please share :-)
