I am passing on this information from Palisade
Systems about a new product they are offering. I have not looked at the
product, but evaluation software is available.

Subject: FW: Peer-to-Peer and Instant Messaging control Are you looking for a way for your school
districts to control the network load and liabilities of Peer-to-Peer file
sharing, instant messaging, and other network based applications? Most
firewalls, antivirus, and internet filters can't manage these PORT HOPPING
apps and their network threats.
Palisade Systems, located in Ames, Iowa,
is looking for schools and small businesses who have not been able to find a
manageable and cost effective network application management solution; and who
would be interested in beta testing a new product, PacketPup
Pro.
PacketPup Pro is Windows based software for schools and small businesses (~10mb or less internet traffic). PacketPup Pro is based
on PacketHound technology.
PacketHound which currently has the ability to scale to 200-300mb of
internet/network traffic , is hardware
appliance based. Multiple units, or installs, of both products
can be placed on segments of your network or, depending on your throughput, one
centralized internet boundary installation may meet your
needs.
PacketHound is superior to PacketPup Pro
with:
- ability to handle higher throughput as dedicated appliance
- customizable rules including time of day,
IP/MAC selections, UDP monitoring
- ability to shape (prioritize quality of
service) and throttle (conditional blocking) by rule
- full featured database and real-time reporting
Please contact me for additional information on
receiving the PacketPup Pro beta, or buying PacketHound. Thank you for
your time and consideration.
