 Someone or several PC’s are flooding my network. What is the fastest and easiest way to use Ethereal to detect what IP address is doing all the broadcasting. I 'am a novice with Ethereal. I have about 50 PC’s and I had thought I had located the one causing all the problems, but it started acting up again the next day. I would appreciate any help that you could give me.

    I downloaded Ethereal last Saturday and I’m almost through reading the user guide, but I' am having a hard time figuring out what IP address is doing all the talking.

Please send help,

Novice, Network Administrator, Joel Witherspoon
