How can I configure port mirroring? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Port_mirroring

I want to gather statistics about the traffic flowing through my router with "ntop" (or does anyone recommend other tools for gathering statistics?)

I can't run ntop on my router because:

  1. there's no OpenWrt ntop package
  2. ntop needs lots of memory

I run ntop on a machine directly connected to my router, but because my router is also a switch, none of the traffic flowing through the router is transmitted to the machine running ntop

How can I configure port mirroring, so ntop can observe the traffic flowing through my router?

My router is a Linksys WRT54GL

Thanks for any advice!
