I know we have these discussions every couple of months at least, but here goes:
What are you guys using to monitor your networks so that you have an answer to the age-old user question of: "Why is everything running so slow?" I'm thinking of bandwidth usage first off, which I'm thinking PRTG to monitor that. I guess I could run a Wireshark capture, to see if there's a massive spike in weird packets. Anything else that you guys could suggest? I know someone had mentioned they use Nagios, but that would require me to setup a Linux box first, which isn't that big a deal, other than piecing a box together... Any other ideas? I'd like to do this without a lot of cost if possible, just because I hate spending money... ~ Upgrade to Next Generation Antispam/Antivirus with Ninja! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbelt-software.com/SunbeltMessagingNinja.cfm> ~
