Netwatcher was initially designed as a scalable solution. Scalability is obtained due to the usage of dynamically uploaded modules (plug-ins), which gather network status information, process and display statistics as well as log the findings.
The number of such modules is subject to expansion therefore the quantity of both network protocols supported and possible variants of statistics representation will grow in number as well.
Owing to this modularity it is quite simple to install a new module without reinstallation or the application restart. In contrast to similar software products Netwatcher allows to track network transport layer in real-time operation mode as well as to monitor status of network services at application protocol level.
There is no doubt that users who are interested in the accurate and up-to-date network state control will appreciate the merits of this software solution.
Here are some key features of "NetWatcher":
· allows constantly expand the performance capabilities by the means of modules which provide data gathering and visualization
· supports the unlimited number of sessions
· provides the ability to choose the way of statistics presentation for each session
· highlights the sessions when response timeout is exceeded
· logs the status of sessions and events at the selected log refinement level
· provides the ability to register logs into a file
· has a simple and intuitive user interface
· provides the high observation accuracy with discreteness of 0,001 sec
· Delivered data gathering plug-ins (begining from version 1.3)
· Ping ICMP (checks ICMP packet advancing and measures response time)
· Ping TCP/IP (checks the possibility of making a TCP/IP connection with the specified port and measures connection speed)
· SMTP Watcher (controls the possibility of making a TCP/IP connection with a SMPT server, checks the efficiency of SMTP protocol along with response time measurement)
· POP3 Watcher (controls the possibility of making a TCP/IP connection with a POP3 server, checks the efficiency of POP3 protocol along with response time measurement)
· FTP Watcher (controls the possibility of making a TCP/IP connection with a FTP server, checks the efficiency of FTP protocol along with response time measurement)
· Delivered visualization plug-ins (begining from version 1.2)
· Numeric (displays the last response time as a number)
· Self Scale (displays statistics as a self-scaling diagram)
· Columns (displays as a diagram with a scale equal to timeout value)
