Linux Network Tools

Here are some of my favorites network tools.
NTOP (http://www.ntop.org): determine which host use which protocols, bandwidth ...
IFTOP (http://www.ex-parrot.com/pdw/iftop) : live view of your bandwidth
BANDWIDTHD (http://bandwidthd.sourceforge.net/) : report of your host's bandwidth

These tools need to be run on a bridge or on a Linux machine connected to a monitoring port on a switch.
