Monitoring Internet traffic

Because many Internet service providers have limitations on the bandwidth you can use per month, you might want to find out which of your programs use the most bandwidth on your network.

Tasks
Analyze incoming and outgoing traffic
The Traffic Analysis graph gives you a numerical and graphical representation of incoming and outgoing Internet traffic. It also displays the programs that use the most network connections on your PC, and the IP addresses that the programs access.
Monitor program bandwidth
You can view a pie chart in Traffic Monitor to see the approximate percentage of bandwidth used by the most active programs on your PC during the past 24-hour period. The pie chart gives you a visual representation of the amounts of bandwidth used by programs, relative to one another.
Monitor program activity
Personal Firewall reports on incoming and outgoing program activity, which you can view to see remote PC connections and ports. This is an important resource when you want to determine which programs on your PC are connecting to the Internet, what types of connections they are establishing, and which ports they are using.
