Maybe someone already posted this, but did anyone of you ever try Ethereal ? (http://www.ethereal.com)
" Ethereal is a free network protocol analyzer for Unix and Windows. It allows you to examine data from a live network or from a capture file on disk. You can interactively browse the capture data, viewing summary and detail information for each packet. Ethereal has several powerful features, including a rich display filter language and the ability to view the reconstructed stream of a TCP session. It supports a *huge* list of protocols."

You may not necessarily need to schedule an outage on your serial link if your CSU/DSUs have external non intrusive monitoring port capabilities. If they do then all you need is a pair of bantam cables and plug one end of the pair into your T-1 module on the Advisor and plug the other ends into your CSU and away you go… You can not only sniff, but generate traffic for stimuli testing and basically use your advisor as a T berd.
