NETWORK@FRSAC11.BITNET (11/17/88)
Date: 17 November 1988, 10:28:29 GMT From: NETWORK at FRSAC11 To: tcp-ip@sri-nic.arpa We would need all comments and appreciations on Ethernet Analysers. We would like to monitor, debug, quantify and trace traffic on Ethernet, using TCP/UDP-IP, DECNet, XNS & other to come. Full capture ability is a must (10 MHz cable, with packets as close as a Sun can provide...) Ease of programming is of some concern. Current known products: Micom-Interlan, Sniffer (Ungermann Bass ?), Excelan & HP (The last one is the only one speciallized instrument, all other are PC-AT cards and software) Comments on the use of a Compaq 386 for above use, if not the HP solution, most welcomme. (Compaq 386s, Portable, 386e ???) Regards, Jean-Pierre H. Dumas network@frsac11 (bitnet) network%frsac11.bitnet@cunyvm.cuny.edu (arpanet) dumas@sumex-aim.stanford.edu (arpanet)
