[pfSense Support] monitoring bandwidth usage of individual lan addresses

[Patrick M. Murray, M.F.A.]

Hi - I am running pfSense on an ALIX board, and it's working quite  
nice. But I was wondering if anyone could help me, or point me in a  
very direct direction to enable some sort of individual bandwidth  
monitoring for individual LAN addresses on my subnet. I'm using the  
traffic shaper, but it doesn't help me much to know what or who to  
limit on the network unless I can get some graphs of LAN IP bandwidth  
usage. I know my neighbor is a hog - not quite sure what he is  
doing... Don't want to know.. :)  But when I put him in the penalty  
box, and limit him to like 5mb/s down and 1mb/s up - he has problems  
connecting. If I had a clear view of what my servers are using and  
what each user is using all the same page, but not merged as they are  
now, I could better control the resources, correct? Every program I  
find, outside of the pfsense, is just another merger of all the usage  
going through the ALIX board. Thanks for anyone's help in advance.
