try NTop: http://ntop.org/

The last i checked NTOP (unless they have changed) does not get stats from a  switch on which a network is connected. It collects stats from the machine it is installed on WHICH IS A GATEWAY TO NETWORK.

what am trying to do here is to have some form of a monitor not a gateway .... let me read about "ent" [Extreme happy netflow tool] ... womder where they get these names from

I have to use the older 3.1 version on Linux to get netFlow working, but
BSD may work fine with 3.2 or CVS...
