De_script_ion
===========
SwithSnarf enables monitoring the Internet connection of any computer in a network established with a switch.

The internet in/out going Internet connections of a computer can be monitored in cooperation with any network monitoring tool (sniffer) or the Nexeye Monitoring Enterprise.
No changes are required in the network setup and no additional software is needed on the computer that is monitored.
