    Snort will provide the kind of monitoring you are asking about. Snort can
    be configured to monitor an entire network, and output logs in tcp dump,
    mySQL, MSSQL, and plain text log output.
    check http://www/snort.org for more information and you may find it helpful
    to subscribe to a mailing list such as
    Snort-users@lists.sourceforge.net
