ASIS is an advanced, professional tool for analyzing, debugging, maintaining and monitoring local networks and Internet connections. ASIS is a network protocol analyzer or sniffer. It captures the data passing through your dial-up connection or network Ethernet card, analyzes the data and represents it in a readable form. ASIS is an useful tool for network administrators, security specialists, network application developers and all those who need a comprehensive picture of the traffic passing through their network connection or a segment of a local network.
ASIS presents the results of its work in a convenient and understandable form. It also lets you defragment and assemble network packets into flows. With ASIS you can easily analyze traffic based on different Internet protocols. ASIS completely decodes all the major protocols such as ARP, IP, TCP, UDP, ICMP, as well as top-level protocols such as HTTP, SMTP, POP, IMAP, FTP, TELNET and others.
The flexible system of filters can discard all network traffic but those traffic patterns you are interested in analyzing. ASIS also contains a special packet builder, through which you can build your own network packets and send them onto the network. This can be used, for example, to check your network for robustness against attacks and intruders.
ASIS requires Windows 95/98/ME/NT/2000/XP and a network connection, which could include any wireless connection or modem that is supported by the NDIS standard.

NetQuality facilitates realistic testing and judging of network connections (layers 1 and 2) as well as TCP/IP connection tests (layer 3).
The software consists of two independent parts: a sending and a receiving process.
The receiver can be used for "echoing" the packets back to the sender.
This realizes a two way test between two stations on a network.
Test results showing the sequence of received and missing frames, the percentage of received frames and the delay times including graphics can be stored in HTML-pages.
Tests can be automated by defining profiles.
System requirements:
NetQuality is a 32 bit software for Windows 95/98/Me, Windows NT and Windows2000. The software needs a network board with a NDIS interface. For layer 1-2 test you need two PCs running NetQuality or another device which is able to "echo" packets on MAC layer directly. For testing TCP/IP connections you need only one NetQuality PC and a "echoing" station with ICMP Ping. The MAC layer echo tests is not for the usage in routed networks, because non routable packets are exchanged.
Its also convenient to use in WLAN.

ActiveXperts Network Monitor is a network and server monitoring tool that allows administrators to monitor the network for failures and irregularities automatically. It can monitor all aspects of your LAN- and WAN servers, workstations and IP devices.
For years, System Administrators, Network Operators and Helpdesk Employees have relied upon the power, flexibility and reliability of the ActiveXperts Network Monitor tool.
ActiveXperts powerful Network Monitor Engine technology has been adopted by several software companies all over the world. ActiveXperts Network Monitoring technologies is used by thousands of companies all over the world, making ActiveXperts the leading provider of Network Monitoring solutions.
The mission of the product is to maximize the reliability of your production servers and applications through the automatic detection and correction of problems and issues.
The product runs as a service on the Windows 2003/2000/XP/NT platform. ActiveXperts Network Monitor supports Windows, UNIX, Linux and Novell platforms. When problems are detected, youre immediately notified by network message, e-mail or SMS message. When a failure is detected, the network monitor tool will try to correct the problem.
Network Monitor Engine (a Windows service)
The Network Monitor Engine is the service that continuously monitors the servers in your LAN/WAN for availability. The service is also responsible for notifying, triggering actions, recovery and logging. The engine is multi-threaded, capable of monitoring many servers simultaneously. It can monitor various platforms, including Windows, Novell, Linux and Unix. It has many built-in monitor checks. Operators can write new checks in VBScript or RSH and add these to the configuration.
There?s no agent software required on the servers being monitored; the monitoring service uses protocols and application layers of the Operating System to do its job.
ActiveXperts Network Monitor includes many built-in monitor checks. You can add new monitor check routines yourself, using VBScript. This is explained in the online Network Monitor VBScript Guidelines.
Network Monitor Manager
The Network Monitor Manager application is used to view the results and to make changes to the configuration. This Manager application allows you to visually monitor the network from any desktop PC.
Use the Network Monitor Manager application to view results and to make changes to the configuration
The Manager application can be installed on any Windows 98, Windows NT or higher computer (workstation or server), and has different authority levels. You can restrict help desk employees to only view results, while you can allow network operators to make changes to the configuration.
Web Interface
The Web Interface is a collection of read-only XML based Views of the network. They can be viewed by an Internet Browser by the use of XSL style sheets. This only requires one port on the firewall (default: port 80) to allow monitoring the network from a remote location. The Web Interface pages can be customized by editing the XSL style sheets. It is very easy to configure the XSL style sheets, for instance to change: colors, sorting, listed items, column and row sizes, and more. This is a unique feature of ActiveXperts Network Monitor, and very often used by the HelpDesk staff.
