Title: Message

your cisco switch should have a console port that can be enabled and Sniffer Pro can monitor all traffic through that port. ----- Original Message ----- From: Jason Benway To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Sent: Tuesday, March 05, 2002 10:53 AM Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] OT: Network bandwidth usage Thanks to all that replied. I'll look into sniffer pro, solorwinds.net seems to be able to give me some of what I want but it duplicates most of what we have with Denika. I also found out I could run a show top on our cisco switches to give me the top ports.   Thanks again.   later,jb -----Original Message----- From: Morgan, Joshua [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, March 05, 2002 10:18 AM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] OT: Network bandwidth usage I agree with Al we had 45 plus Cisco switches in our network and sniffer pro seems to work great. We set a port on one of our Core switches to be a forwarder and we saw all the traffic.     Joshua Morgan PH: (864) 250-1350 Ext 133 Fax: (413) 581-4936 [EMAIL PROTECTED] -----Original Message----- From: Al Garrett [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, March 05, 2002 10:07 AM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] OT: Network bandwidth usage Sniffer Pro seems to work well on my switched network.

Good Luck >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 3/5/2002 8:08:49 AM >>> I've used MTRG, Denika, WUG. but none of them will do what I'm looking for.   What I want is a tool that will scan/monitor a switch ( a Cisco 4006 for example) read all ports though SNMP or RMON and tell me which one has the most active then I could use the MAC address to find that workstation.   Because we have a fully switched network, most sniffers don't work in a switched environment.   Anyone using or have seen a tool like this?   thanks,jb Jason Benway [EMAIL PROTECTED] 1250 S.Beechtree Grand Haven, MI 49417 616-847-8474 Fax: 616-850-1208 If you have received this confidential message in error, please destroy it and any attachments without reading, printing, copying or forwarding it.  Please let us know of the error immediately so that we can prevent it from happening again.  You may reply directly to the sender of this message.  Thank You.
