[ale] Monitor Internet Traffic

[Chuck Payne]

Chris,

Wireshark, in console mode is tshark. TCPDUMP is good. But if you
wanting some graphs, you could set up your pi as the default gw use
some great tools with debian like

awffull
iptool
ntop, but make sure you set up a password or change the port.

But that just my 2 cents.
