monitoring network activity

[chrisb63]

Hello

I have a airport extreme, 2 macs and one pc on my network.
I would like to monitor the activity on this network.
By monitoring, I mean being able to see websites visited, P2P, etc...

So I'm looking for a soft that I could install on my iMac (10.5.6) to do that.

Before with my Zyxel, I was able to log the activity and to block some websites. With Airport Extreme, I don't think that is doable, at least I don't know how to do it.

If you have some idea...

Many thanks

Chris

In order to do that, you'd need some sort of firewall/proxy/router that handles all incoming and outgoing traffic. Do you mean that you want all traffic to go through that iMac?

[chrisb63]

No no, just to be able to log it.
That would happen, of course, only when the iMac is running.

Or if there is a way to do it with the AE.
By the way the pc connects to the AE by wifi

I use OpenDNS. Just follow the instructions on the site, and it'll lead you through whatever you need to do.

There is a free version, and it allows you to block sites and monitor traffic on your router.
