Hi Lily,

On a day to day basis I think Wireshark (http://www.wireshark.org/) handles
just about everything i need it to.  Its not very often I need a piece of
hardware that is specifically designed to analyze network communication.  At
work we use SmartBits (
http://www.spirent.com/analysis/technology.cfm?media=7&ws=325&ss=110).  I'm
sure its expensive...  Hope that helps.
