Re: [CentOS] Lan Monitoring Software on Centos

I want to monitor Desktops & Laptops and want a daily, weekly,monthly reports for each and every client with the details like Bandwidth spend on www, mail, chatting. Company wants to track how much bandwidth each client is consuming and on what.

Is there any such tool available? I am using Centos 4.0

There are several tools you can use to monitor bandwidth usage, and display them as a graph with rrdtool or mrtg. The issue is breaking it down by application. The easiest way to do that would be at the switch level via a managed switch. Even then, you'd only be able to manage port usage, and not necessarily application usage.
