Hello all,

Have been researching my options and I want to make sure I haven't
missed something.

I want to build something that will count the number of bytes on an
Ethernet line. No interaction with the line or higher level monitoring
(i.e. packet sniffing), just a count.

Using a PC or PC type infrastructure isn't really an option, can the PIC
Ethernet ports be put into a mode where they just receive bytes and
count them? 

Other options are using a CPLD/FPGA with appropriate phy but that starts
getting a little much.

Would prefer to support both 10BaseT and 100BaseT. Gigabit would be
grand, but probably not reasonable to expect.

Thanks for any suggestions!

TTYL
