It is most likely that your router has switched interfaces (most home router/switch combos are exactly that), meaning that each port will only see its own traffic. It's unlikely that you can configure one port as a spanning port or monitor port, as is possible on some larger switches. There are three ways I can think of off the top of my head to get the info you want: Install Ntop on all the machines, place a hub between the router and your PCs (hubs brodcast all traffic across all ports) or go SNMP probing your router and see if you can't pull some interesting traffic values from it. > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of dk > Sent: June 23, 2001 10:27 AM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: [Ntop] ntop LAN problem... help please > > > Hi.
