	In what context?

	Do you want to see each and every packet?  Then you probably want tcpdump.

	Do you want to see historical information over time, regarding 
how many packets and how much bandwidth is used?  Then you probably 
want to install Net-SNMP and something like mrtg, rrd and either 
cricket or orca, rrdtool, or somesuch.
