network usage monitoring software

[xmario2013]

Hi All:

We have Cisco router (1700s) running 2 T1 (with 2 Cards) between two sites, running database application, email, internet, intranet file sharing etc. ..., can you suggest any software that will monitor the useage on these circuit ? (perhaps begin with free one then up if possible), is there some thing we can setup on the end points so we know how much of its total bandwidth we are actually using

Thanks

xmario2004,

1.Try mrtg, it is a free ware
2.PRTG easy to configure and will cost you some
3.Netflow tracker from crannog software (will cost you alot) but it is much more detailed and will give the protocol/bandwidth usage


thanks
