If told him he could get L7 info he would be happy, but I think the bytes/sec over time per user would be good enough. Does DansGuardian do usage monitoring? I didn't read that when scanning through their pages. Network Guardian does, but it appears to be WWW focused, not all types of traffic.

Well does he want layer 7 info or just raw data? Maybe DansGuardian or other tools might have better reporting systems?
