We use a Allot Netenforcer and a Cisco ASA with IDSM module.  It catches P2P very well and if you want to spend the 
time, you can do packet captures with the IDSM and block the newer P2P apps.

What devices are you using to monitor P2P traffic and how well are they
working for you?  Is there some P2P traffic that you believe your
monitoring software isn't catching?  Ie. encrypted traffic, outdated P2P
definitions from the vendor, etc.


Thanks.
