[comp.sys.next] Network monitoring

frank@urz.unibas.ch (05/15/91)

Hi netters,
I have my slab hooked up to the network here at our institute and as a system
manager of tow DECmicrovaxes an as an utterly unexperienced network "manager"
(or supervisor) I often have the problem of having to find out why this or
that isn't running as it should on our net. At the moment it's an OS9 
communication that won't work.

I would appreciate of ANY KIND of network monitor software for the NeXT that
will allow me to "sniff" the net for specific packets running arround.

Is there anything available (yet) or anything (PD) that could be rather
easily ported? (I've seen great stuff on an IRIS...)

Thank's for your help.          Robert.
