Bandwidth Monitoring

Freshmeat.
These following tools are recommended:
bwm ==> very simple, ncurses based, for quick and easy overall network summary.
iptraf ==> very robust, ncurses based, my favorite, without kernel patch it lets you monitor specific host based on MAC Addresses
connmon ==> ncurses and gtk interfaces. With kernel patch you can monitor individual ip bandwidths
