What is the best way to track bandwidth? Any and all ideas welcome.
Can bridging help?

What we have is :

1.    Cisco router on wall supplied by telco
2.    Main FreeBSD 4.3-Stable box hosting client sites, three NIC's in this machine
        i. First to switch connected to cisco
        ii. Second to switch serving our internal 10.0.0.0/24 network
        iii. Third doing nothing yet ............. - been thinking about bridging for a while.
3.    co-lo client boxes, for which we need to monitor traffic - these can be attached to first switch or whatever seems to be the best way

Any help gratefully appreciated. (even if you just point me in the right direction)

Regards,

Kulraj Gurm
