Sniffer also sells a Full Duplex Pod which will enable to see both sides of
the link.
I think they also have a product called snifferbook that will enable you to
do advanced Wan analysis (It will let you look at fractional E1's/T1's). As
Priscilla mentioned you must connect these devices in-line...

If by "open" you mean that your Ethernet 1 port is not currently in use,
then there aren't any packets coming and going on it. You wouldn't see
anything on the port. I guess you could configure it for bridging and then
you would at least see broadcasts, but that seems like a silly idea.
It sounds like you're wishing for something like a SPAN port. Keep in mind
that SPAN is for switching, not routing.
Your best bet might be to install a hub between your switch and router.
Connect the switch, router, and Sniffer to the hub and you'll see lots of
good stuff. (I'm assuming your switch is directly connected to your
router??)
Hope that makes sense. Without more knowledge of your topology it's hard to
make any other suggestions.
