Hi!

I'm interested in finding out what network tools other people are using on their systems for several tasks:

1. Packet sniffing. I know tcpdump is very popular, but from what I can tell, it only looks at packet headers. What utilities are there to actually capture and look at entire packets?

2. Traffic counters. By this I mean being able to monitor on a per interface basis the amount of traffic going in and out. A programme that tells you something like 240bytes has gone outward from eth1 and 397 bytes have come in on eth0.

3. Bandwidth throttling: Here I mean tools that limit the throughput on a particular interface. So you can specify something like on eth1, its never allowed to go above some rate /sec

Thanks for you input!
