We are using Packeteer with great success blocking P2P traffic.

We are also in the process of deploying Facetime's RTGuardian solution for spyware - it also has a P2P section that looks pretty sharp. If you are interested I can keep you informed of our progress on that (we just deployed it in test in a small area last night) We think we are catching at least most P2P (based on RIAA notices :) ). Also, our traffic patterns seem pretty healthy. Thanks, Corbett Consolvo Information Security Analyst Texas State University Cc72 () txstate edu -----Original Message----- From: Youngquist, Jason R.

Is there some P2P traffic that you believe your monitoring software isn't catching? Ie. encrypted traffic, outdated P2P definitions from the vendor, etc. Thanks.
