Since a discussion on MRTG is ongoing, my reading of the docs indicate that it has to be pointed at an SNMP host to work properly. I was looking for something that simply monitored net traffic and reported on load, utilization, etc. Am I misunderstanding what MRTG does or just net monitoring in general?

Easy to setup and opensource. Can use it to monitor all kinds of stuff. On 3/29/06, Craig Van Tassle <craig () codestorm org> wrote:

Has any of you have experince with that ? Another thing i want to know is in which sceneario a hardware bandwidth solution should be deployed? ie it should be deployed after or before the firewall in the network or it should be deployed in the lan ? any inputs are appreciated. Thanks in advance.Well it all depends on what exacly you are watching for? You are looking to see what is going in/out from the lan to the internet or howmuch traffic is being stopped from your firewall. It all depends really on waht exacly you want to do. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ----- EARN A MASTER OF SCIENCE IN INFORMATION ASSURANCE - ONLINE The Norwich University program offers unparalleled Infosec management education and the case study affords you unmatched consulting experience.
