Regarding a wiki, I can start drafting notes for a future page.
There's quite of few options available for monitoring though (here's a personal
list from least-to-most comprehensive):
- monitoring the LAN/VLAN
- NetFlow / traffic reporting from the router
- connecting the carrier ISP border and my KB3VWG router with a Layer 1 Hub (I use this
method)
- running a monitoring software on the device itself and accessing/copying the results
- switch port mirroring
I've used a combination of all the methods previously; but beginning yesterday, I
begun using a 100 Mbps Layer 1 Hub between my router and carrier Ethernet demarcation.
