    Still surprised that no one has mentioned that Cisco users can use NBAR
    (network based application recognition). It works really well for us
    and takes un-needed stress out of the IDS, yet requires very little of
    the router to drop/block the p2p from getting anywhere.

    just a thought...google it! :)
