Network Bandwidth monitors?

Anyone know of a good free network bandwidth monitor that I can use for our company?

Something that I can set to monitor all day and at what times during the day the bandwidth gets clogged up.

Do your routers/switches/hubs not offer anything?

What kind of network are we talking? Total users? Platforms? Backbone?

I have a sonicwall firewall, I didn't see anything on there unless you know of any? I also have a barracuda web filter but didn't see anything there either. No we don't have any Cisco products, just HP procurve switches.

Connects to whatever you have with snmp. Put it on a small linux virtual machine and you will be good to go.
