Network diagram app that shows realtime link utilizatin
Hi folks, I wonder if anyone can recommend a network diagram tool that can show realtime link utilization via snmp? Mikrotik's "The Dude" app actually does exactly what I'm looking for, but the snmp support for non-RouterOS devices seems to be lacking, as it simply won't enumerate my switch interfaces in order to capture utilization. I've downloaded several trial tools (WhatsUp, NetCure, Solarwinds LANsurveyor etc.) but they don't serve this very basic need of mine to see the realtime link util in the diagram. Thanks, Hank Disuko
InfoVista Vista360 does it. It's part of a bigger tool set and isn't cheap, but it's pretty cool. Tate On Tue, 1 May 2012 12:41:19 -0400, Hank Disuko wrote:

cacti by use of weather maps? Alternatively, Intermapper is pretty good, but commercial. It's more of an NMS than a diagram tool though. Everywhere I used it, I was pretty happy with it. --Andrey On Tue, May 1, 2012 at 12:41 PM, Hank Disuko <gourmetcisco@hotmail.com>wrote:

Netbrain OE does this. David Barak Sent from a mobile device, please forgive autocorrection. On May 1, 2012, at 12:47 PM, Andrey Khomyakov <khomyakov.andrey@gmail.com> wrote:

It's also worth mentioning that most of the tools listed in response to the original message show data in near-real-time, such as 1 or 5-minute averages. 'real-time' in this case starts to lead down a slippery slope of terminology gaps ;) jms
I have discovered ITGuru works pretty good. http://itnetworkguru.com/ -Grant On Tue, May 1, 2012 at 11:57 AM, Justin M. Streiner <streiner@cluebyfour.org
