So you want to monitor the traffic going through your router?
I imagine that would be difficult to do from one of the endpoints in
your LAN (your Gentoo box). The switch should only route to your
machine traffic destined for it, so how to measure the bandwidth the
other machines are consuming between themselves and the outside world?
If there is a way to do this I'd be very interested :)
