Any kind of network analysis or capacity planning will
definitely require
NetFlow data.

you are looking to do by
way of analysis. for traces i like
wireshark (http://www.wireshark.org/), a good, open source tool. while it
might not be the best tool for sizing b/w it does give the
ability to plot
session latency. some apps are notorious for being latency
intolerant. for
sizing b/w i would start with mrtg (http://oss.oetiker.ch/mrt
g/), another
open source tool. much less granular but if the concern is
how much b/w to
order it is a good place to start.
thanks.
