When you configure IP accounting on an interface,  you can get information
about how many bytes of data is coming from a mail server or a file server.
With a small program you can get this information periodically from the
router and then you can process this data according to your needs. Allright
this is what we have. I'm looking for a better software which has some
additional features and a good GUI .(not Cisco Secure ACS )
Even this better software has to get data from the router and  the router
has to generate this data. This means "slow down"; No difference.
