PIX and monitoring software

What LAN hardware is installed in additiona to the PIX ?

Hi,



I am looking for an efficient software to help me monitor a LAN with a about



400 workstations. I want to monitor the internal users activities, including Internet also I want to be able to simply disconnect a user from Internet in case he is doing something business unrelated, but I dont want to filter the urls, so I am not looking for applications like Websense or SurfControl. I also need to check the Internet/Network Bandwidth usage in total and per person at any time, so in case I get any complain about network/Internet speed I can simply find the reason.

Does anyone know such software?


My firewall is a PIX 515, it doesnt do these jobs, does it?


Thanks in advance for any suggestion-Rob


SurfControl.

Hello,

I'd do it with ISS Proventia A or G.

+ OPSEC on CheckPoint. You also may want a proventia M having a built-in content filtering module from Cobion AG

But, with a PIX you can't do really anything but integrate your PIX to a Websense content filter architecture.
