Not for free, but Sniffer Pro can tell you a lot of things that are 
happening and it has also "layered". So one can look at the Data Link, 
Network, Transport or other layers and see what protocols are being 
used, see top-talkers in each protocol, bandwidth used, different 
percentages and so on... It has a lot of info.
  At first I thought that it is not very good tool, but over time I have 
changed my opinion. It has lot of good info, through which is easy to 
navigate and see what could be happening.

  Just a thought -- Tomas
