      I'm looking for a simple SNMP client to monitor my pfSense traffic. I'd prefer it to NOT run on the appliance because it's CF-based storage with write restrictions. I'd rather the client runs on a Win7 or WinXp (or even Win2003) box and connects to the pfSense appliance for SNMP data.

      I'm looking for really simple information - just the bandwidth we're hitting our hosting company with.

      I realise this topic has been discussed - but as always the answer is 75% there.

          Thanks, Solarwinds seems to work well.

          I had also decided to try PRTG before I saw your post. Although much more complicated than Solarwinds, PRTG shows traffic totals (i.e. amount of data in/out) as well as speed.
