I'm trying to help manage a moderate sized network with ~200-250 PCs. Our network is supported by 1 T1 (I know, it's not alot of bandwidth, but we're working on that), with 4 Subnets. (192.168.0.x - 192.168.3.x) all controlled through a Cisco 2600 series router and a Websense Filter/Server.
The problem is that someone is eating up our bandwidth really badly, but I don't know how to figure out who is doing it. I set Websense to block the common P2P protocols, but that's not working for some reason. For example, I set it to block Bittorrent, but if I fire up bittorrent, it works. It does block out websites and things correctly, but not P2P.
Is there any way I can monitor which IP is eating up bandwidth? Is it possible to block Bittorrent through port filtering alone?
Also, if anyone has experience with Websense, shoot me a PM, I've got some questions to ask.
