I'd also like to get a program like that.  We had to write our own, but I'm
sure an outside company could do a better job.

Do you have any network monitoring station currently?

openview can do this rrdtool also has scripts for this...

do you mean packets that the router thinks are lost or packets that the
router sends, thinks is fine and  never hits the endpoint?

For granular detail of packet loss, you'll probably need to deploy rmon at
each endpoint and watch applications as they talk across the network,rather
than looking for random lost packets.  For core switches, you'll either have
to purchase an rmon license or a NAM.  Traffic Director is capable of doing
just this..  Ngenious, TD's successor also does this but runs horribly with
CW2000 and usually requires it's own server.

Of course if these are slow links already, then adding more traffic to tell
you you have packet loss is kinda silly.. :)  Check out rrdtool and mrtg to 
grab utilization and interface stats.  At least you'll have a best guess and
if you suspect packet loss at certain times during the day, you can check it
against the utilization.

You could try NetPredictor from NetPredict. I have used their product and 
found it very helpful. I don't think they went away with the other dot 
bombs. They are managed by very senior-level types and didn't fit the dot 
bomb profile. OK, I've inserted enough text to put in a URL here and avoid 
the URL-bashing bug:

Solarwinds Engineer's Edition (http://www.solarwinds.net/tools.htm) also has
their Network Monitor.

or, if you want to go hog wild and have the budget for it, InfoVista
(http://www.infovista.com/products/products.asp) would do the trick.
IV supports proxy pings between routers, will collect all metrics from
appropriate MIB's, Netflow statistics, SAA agents, etc, and merge them into
a data warehouse for later analysis.  Very robust and complete system.

Re: Network latency [7:40295]

2002-04-04 Thread Shawn Goodson

The question is pretty broad. On our enterprise networks we use four
different products to determine latency and packet loss.
On the local and wide area we utilize snmp and rmon to gather statistics,
but that does not always give you a complete picture, especially if your
data traverses public carriers etc. To gather end to end throughput,
latency, and loss measurements we use Chariot, this was originally a
Ganymeade product but is now NetIQ. On the free side Ttcp is the closest
thing I know of.
To monitor specific traffic flows protocol analyzers will provide you with a
true picture of data loss and latency. We tend to capture the traffic of
interest, and then get detailed information about the conversation in each
direction with NetCalibrate / NetPredict. We have not found a single tool
but rely on a few in combination depending on the problem we are trying to
solve. Ping is not a solution when troubleshooting.

If you want to test results in a laboratory situation Spirent has products
under Adtech or SmartBits, there is also Ixia.
