How to monitor LAN bandwidth ?
Hi Experts,
I have two HP Procurve swithces in my LAN, one is 1Gbps. I need to monitor the LAN bandwidth.
It's a win2k8 network on top of VMware vSphere.
I feel file copying speed is bit slow.
Thanks !

Set up a SNMP password and enable SNMP on the switch, then go to www.paessler.com to download the free tool to achieve what you want.
Free one limited to 10 ports, but a fully functioning 30 daya trial for all ports will give you what you want.
Lots of tools to do this but Paessler is easy to configure.
Also, once you have your speeds, interrogate traffic types if your switch support netflow/sflow using solrwinds netflow analyzer (google it)

Using e.g. PRTG (snmp) on the switch you can monitor port utilization. http://www.paessler.com/prtg/
