That would be great. It has been awhile since I have done C programming so it would be nice to work with it again.

It queries the switches and hubs for the MAC addresses seen at each port and the number of bytes in/out. Some switches have a MAC to IP table, else I would ask the ARP table of the router for a table like this. The program then prepares a nice top-10 on the intraweb showing which computers are generating most traffic, and another table with traffic at each switch/hub port. This program was made by studying the output from snmpwalk for the switches, finding the necessary MIB's etc. The program is unreadable by anyone else but me, so it is not suitable for distribution, but maybe this could give you a hint on how to proceed.
