Surely you could look at the netflow data from your router and identify
the nx traffic to the individual branch offices based on the remote
address?

Alternatively, run tcpdump for a while on the box hosting the nx server
and then use ethereal/wireshark to analyze it.

BTW, performance issues are very likely over ADSL if users are
downloading files or doing large data transfers as the latency may
become very high. I would say you definitely need QoS or some kind of
traffic shaping. I am assuming of course that your nx server is not on
an ADSL link--if it is, then that will be a major problem due to the low
uplink speed and latency of ADSL.
