Hello,

EtherApe is a nice tool, but I wish it generated a log that listed 
accumulated traffic by ip address. For instance:


Source:               Destination
192.168.1.2        12.55.99.111                  1024kb          http
                           75.151.22.10                  21000kb        udp

192.168.1.33      66.99.33.11                     384kb           udp
                           93.22.66.12                     999mb         
  http


12.55.99.112      192.168.1.3                     100000kb     http
                           192.16831.56                  4000kb         http

etc.

If anyone know of something similar to etherape that outputs useful 
stats without simply recording everything that passes through the 
interfaces into a massive log file, that would be helpful. What I could 
really use would be a text version of Etherape. I want to know what 
source address connected to what destination address, the protocol used 
and the amount of data transferred. I don't need 24 hour capture of 
every packet into a file, just statistics. Who are the biggest bandwidth 
hogs? What external sources are pulling the most data from our internal 
network?

I know that wireshark/ethereal can do this but it generates tremendous logs.

 - Thanks
