MRTG works great (in an SNMP environment).

You might be able to use RRDTool if you want more specifics on your traffic.

Subject: bandwidth monitoring for baystacks

Hi all,

        I'm sorry to post this little off-topic question but its my last ressource i can rely on.

        I need to monitor the bandwidth between 2 switches (Baystack 350-24T with dual optical fiber exp port). I can see statistics for every port (1 to 26, including both fiber ports) when i telnet in the switch, but i would like to have a tool that will help me to monitor the bandwidth usage in real time and that will allow me to do some graphs or reports (something that i can use/present to the corp. administrators and that they will understand) on the load of the fiber link

NB.: We are in a M$ world, no *nix boxes. If possible the tool should be freeware or cheap with a demo version.

Thanks a lot
