CentOS, flow-tools, Cacti + FlowViewer plugin. All free.

Here's one of the reports I like to look at a couple times a day. Top 5 sources for the last hour. flow-cat does need some horsepower behind it for more complex search filters. This one happened to take about 2 seconds on 12 Xeon cores.

Motherf'ing windows updates by far.

        Josh,

        I was trying to work within Steve's budget.

        Also, I should give a disclaimer.  In my previous life, I was a
        programmer.  I still love to program.  Any excuse I get to
        write even
        a small script/program, I'll do it.

Case in point is netflow. I wanted to track our nat users. Mikrotik,
        starting with 6.29, added NAT data to the netflow export.  I
        looked at
        all the collectors out there and decided they were way
        overkill for
        what I wanted.  So, I took a day and wrote my own netflow
        collector
        using perl.  Just grabs the netflow data, filters out the
        garbage, and
        writes to a tab-delimited text file base of the date and
        hour.  Very
        simple.  Does exactly what I needed.
