A couple of links that I came across that prompted the question this morning.

I'm certainly not trying to stick my neck out into a potentially bad situation, merely trying to provide an intelligent response to someone else's inquiry. The second bit I was looking to see is a breakdown of where the traffic is coming from, such as HTTP, P2P, etc, and what IP ranges are the primary culprits as they have several VLANS. Cheers.

You should probably be a little more specific about precisely what sort of "acceptable use policies and procedures" you are trying to enforce. I'd also caution against looking for a technical solution to a social or HR percieved 'problem'. It nearly always seems to end in tears, recriminations, and other unpleasantness :-) Kind regards, Chris -- This email is made from 100% recycled electrons _______________________________________________ List mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pfsense.org/mailman/listinfo/list _______________________________________________ List mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pfsense.org/mailman/listinfo/list _______________________________________________ List mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pfsense.org/mailman/listinfo/list
