E3: Monitoring Network traffic for a PC running PRTG using Packet Sniffing
· Create one new Packet Sniffer sensor for each IP/protocol and for each network card to be monitored and apply a filter based on the corresponding IP/port for each item you want to monitor
· Or: If you do not need long term accounting data for each IP or protocol and only want to know the current and recent traffic by IP or protocol, you can create just one Packet Sniffer sensor and enable the Toplist feature based on IP or protocol.
