In windows server is a network analyze included to monitor all trafic to that server you run analyzer on. So if its P2P trafic it will not show up. If you have multiple server you will need to run the software on all servers. There is however a simple thing you could do... Of course if your network is not to big. Just look 5 or 10 minutes at the trafic LED's of your switch or hub when you experiance the slowness. Do that a couple of times when the slowwness reoccurs. If it is one station causing the trafic you will probably notice it a the trafic LED. Ofcourse the slowness of your network can be another issue to like bad wins or DNS configuration....

I think something is producing a lot of traffic on our network and it's slowing everything down lots... I'd like to try and find out what it is to get thinsg back up to speed, but I really don't know where to start looking. Any help would be gratefully appreciated.
