To Whom It May Concern:

 

I am a relatively new user to ethereal and I am trying to use it to determine characteristics about the system such is bandwidth utilisation. The main ones I am able to do, but I am having a bit of trouble calculation the maximum bandwidth utilisation. Is there a specific way of doing this? Or is there another script I could use. Do I simply need another program to be able to perform this task?

 

Also the data we are collecting is very large in size even though we don’t need very much information. Is there any way of being able to reduce the size of the recorded data?

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
