OK - manage QOS for VOIP traffic on a flat network (no VLANs)
Of course you can't manage the internet side of things, just the local.

For those who are interested in Network Monitoring, do you have a preference for platform?

Open source would likely be the best option, unless a vendor is willing to put something up to test with that you can work on and teach with.

Nagios (community) and the most useful addins to make it a functional system for "most" network administrators would be really useful.

What kind of monitoring?
ping tests?
bandwidth utiltization?

Logs?I would suggest something that could include Ping test, CPU, Memory, and Network utilization, Disk IOPS, and other Performance Metrics using scripts, or Zabbix.
Logging would be an added bonus.

Best practices for detecting viruses through LAN traffic would be interesting. I guess that would be too specific (to wireshark) though considering we are mostly interested in open source and that's the best in town afaik

Wireshark is best-in-class for paid solutsions as well, I think. There are several commercial solutions that integrated nicely with it.

I don't have a lot of experience with stuff like that, but it would be a good topic.
