You can enable IP accounting for the output packets on the appropriate
interface. Just remember you need to put that interface in
process-switching mode. After you enable IP accounting, you can see
which flows are causing the most traffic. Also remember this shows
flows, so you'd need to copy/paste the output into a text file that you
can import into Excel then sort by address (source or dest) to see which
host(s) are causing the most traffic.

Subject: How to find which host generates most traffic
On a router, is it possible to find the which mac-address or host in a
LAN is generating the most traffic? Suppose a host machine is sending
heavy traffic across the WAN, is it possible to locate that machine from
the router, or atleast locate the segment where the host is?
Thanks.
