We're getting reports of some seemingly random network slowdown by our stud=
ent body.  It is proving difficult to track down and we've been looking for=
 some network traffic testing software to help out.  Do you know of any goo=
d tools that can write pings to a graph, record latency, or anything that c=
ould help track down bottlenecks and dropped packets?

Thanks,
