tracking IP's

Hi there,I have a device on my internal network with the IP 192.168.1.150.

What I need to do is track all calls to this device as it is DMZed through
the LinkSys router to this address.

How can I track all IP calls to this device. And also to identify by IP
address the calling party.....

Thanks,

Gordon

The first thing to do is turn on logging for the services that are turned
on. That will keep track of all the connections to those services. The
Linksys router also has logging. It will log all incoming and outgoing
connections.

a) If the machine is a server, install Network Monitor
included free since NT 4 server.

b) Or use Network Monitor from the SMS packages or
one of the free such programs, like WinDump or
Ethereal on the same or a another box in the same
broadcast domain (and same leg of any switch.)

c) Use Snort or another IDS (intrusion dection system)
on the machine or another....[ditto above]

CAVEAT: In some companies it is a serious (even
TERMINATION) offence to use a sniffer or network
monitor without explicit permission.

If you aren't "da man" (or "da gull") then be smart about
this.
