I agree with the netflow data, it's easy on the router, no super huge database required, and here is a link to a demo for a product I've used before that may just fit the bill for you, I have used the free edition (monitors two interfaces)for some time now for a customers dedicated line and it

I understood from a vendor who was looking to sell me a calea solution that they would bill us for the cost of each intercept, etc, but not expect us to pay them until we get re-reimbursed by the government. Light bulb went off. Jeff Broadwick wrote: In theory, you should be able to bill th
