Network Traffic
Hi all,
Got a strange one here, well not so much strange, different :-)
I need to work out if a server is particulary chatty, whether its talking / communicating heavily to a particular server, as Im planning to physically move the server to a different server, over a link. Hence the requirement to see if its particulary chatty.
Ok, so I do a snoop, I see it talks to x y and z, but how do you measure network traffic ? Do you say that server a sends out x amount of packets per an hour, or total amount of data sent in a day ?
Not sure, can you help ?
