Hi all,

if you want to monitor traffic of given protocols on non standard ports you
have to tell the router:

ip nbar port-map <protocol> <port>
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/partner/products/sw/iosswrel/ps1835/products_configuration_guide_chapter09186a00800c75d0.html

AFAIK, if you want to monitor/identify p2p traffic, like kazaa or emule you
have to add the PDLM for each protocol:
