I looked into commercial packages about 9 months ago.  By far, the best
was NetMetrix.  Now part of HP.  Contact Boyd .

(603) 888-7700.  It was also expensive as you needed rmon agents and a
central station.

Marcus <mjr @

or by source and destination pairs, but not by packet type between pairs.
You can do what you describe by setting up a lot of "filters" as you say.

You may find you have too much data.
