    Post Utility to monitor network utilization.

    Back again!

    I have a few networks that have grown quite a bit. I would like to measure the network utilizatoin on them. I've found alot of different programs that will do this. So many that I don't know where to start. I thought I would see what programs some of the system admins on this board use or ones they may recommend.

    Thanks!! <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0">

    FYI, the NAI sniffer was NetXray. So go to to NAI's site and check out the sniffer info. it's one of the best out there.

    MRTG is undoubtedly the best network utilization monitor out there. Best of all its free.
    www.mrtg.org

    MRTG is a very valuable tool for a network administrator, in fact a lot of companies look for MRTG experience on resumes.
