Sometimes that's the case. There are also cases where, for instance, I
can pull the wire out of the network closet that goes to one particular
machine and plug it in the back of a firewall box. Now with $200 worth of
hardware I have isolated the suspect computer from the universe. The NIC
on the suspect box is wired straight to the NIC on my box. There is no
doubt where the packets originate.

You notice that in the cases cited, the network was used in such a way as
to catch the guilty party in the act.

They aren't necessary when the rent-a-cops catch the guilty party doing
his thing. There's not much point in the guilty even taking that one to
trial.
