Hi Dan - A much more cost effective option than packeteer might be a Cisco 3550/3560 along with PRTG Enterprise Edition, which can accept netflow stats. You can use the Cisco for your routing, rate limiting, QoS, ACLs and use PRTG for reporting.
I still think it would be helpful if you could describe your overall objectives in terms of the business impact you're seeing on your network and what you hope to be able to accomplish because it sounds like you are trying to potentially kill several birds with one stone, and I believe you will pay a large premium for a product that can do it all. - Jay -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Dan Horne Sent: Tuesday, April 25, 2006 3:23 PM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [IMail Forum] WAY OT: Bandwidth Management (once more with feeling) Thanks for your responses. I like the Packeteer for its functionality, but not for its price. However we need what we need, and I will be looking into them. I wish we could purchase one from Ebay, but that's not likely to happen. > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Nick Hayer > Sent: Tuesday, April 25, 2006 3:15 PM > To: [email protected] > Subject: Re: [IMail Forum] WAY OT: Bandwidth Management (once > more with feeling) > > Hi Dan, > > Dan Horne wrote: > > >OK, any recommendations? > > > Packeteer.
