Carlos, I'm with Martin on this one.
I've got a Packeteer and love it. It give me the monitoring I need and the ability to shape the traffic. Call your local Packeteer Salesman and have him bring one out for a 30 day eval. He'll be happy to do it.... He knows once a Packeteer goes in for an eval, it usually doesn't come out. Cost 8K-10K with maintanance. - David ----- Original Message ----- From: "Martin Blackstone" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "NT System Admin Issues" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Friday, September 28, 2001 2:02 PM Subject: RE: Network Traffic > Then check it out.
