Network Monitoring

[Stefan Dengscherz]

Hello,


your best option would be a central web proxy server (squid) with
authentication. Configure your network so that the proxy usage is
mandatory and configure authentication for users (various
possibilities with squid: ntlm, ldap, mysql, ...). You can generate
reports from the squid logs then based on users (bandwidth, sites,
etc.)

Of course this only works if you just want to monitor web usage.
