Anthony,

Get a commercial sniffer. :) Sniffer Pro does exactly what you want, but
it's expensive. You may be able to find a Perl script or the like that
will create graphs from packet capture files. Ethereal uses the same
packet capture library as tcpdump. 

There are other options for this type of information, do a google search
for ntop. Here's another program that might do what you need:

Never used it, but it might be useful.

Subject: packet sniifers?


I am doing some troubleshooting on a network and am using ethereal as a 
packet sniffer. Is there a way to get the ouput
into a pretty graph/chart? I would like to have a chart that amongst 
other things would break down traffic by protocol/source/destination...etc.
