Hi folks,

 

I have devices which connect to my network using IP addresses assigned from a pool. I would like to find out how many bytes is being sent and received from the devices, firstly the total amount from the pool and also from individual IP’s from the pool. Is this possible with Ethereal or can someone point me to something that will do that? I also want to output the amount of bytes as well as the IP to a log file, it will then be inserted into an Oracle database.

 

So if I have a pool of 10.1.0.8 /29 I would like to find out how many bytes was sent and received from and to this pool, If one of the devices from the pool gets an IP of 10.1.0.9 then I also want to find out how many bytes was sent and received to and from this IP.

 

cheers
