How to monitor network bandwidth? - A new network tool helps to monitor network bandwidth and traffic usage in a local network or Internet and helps using enterprise resources efficiently.
10-Strike Software presents a new bandwidth monitoring program: 10-Strike Bandwidth Monitor. The program
collects the inbound and outbound network traffic usage statistics on network
computers. This program allows you to find out which computer in your network uses
up your bandwidth. You can find out the ingoing and outgoing data volume utilized
by each networked computer. This can help you to identify the guilty employee,
who uses the company recourses for personal affairs, or find computers infected
by a virus which generates a lot of network traffic.
10-Strike Bandwidth Monitor’s monitoring engine is released as a service
application. It constantly collects the statistic about the inbound and
outbound traffic, which passes through each networked computer, displaying the
dynamic of speed transfer changes in the real-time on graphs and tables. It generates
and sends notifications to a network administrator 24 hours every day. The
program supports a few methods of gathering the bandwidth usage data: via SNMP,
via WMI, and via remote agents, which have to be installed previously on remote
computers (the Group Policy deployment is supported). The SNMP protocol can be
used to monitor network bandwidth usage on computers as well as on switches and
other active network hardware.
The program offers you various features for sending notifications and
executing particular actions when a failure occurs or some conditions are
satisfied (reaching traffic usage limits, network interface going down, etc.).
The program can display a message on the
screen or play a sound alarm. Also, the administrator can configure the program
for sending e-mail notifications or SMS messages to a mobile phone. It allows
the administrator to be informed about all failures in time and respond fast. The
program can automatically shut down a computer, run applications, and restart
services when a network failure is detected or traffic usage limits are reached.
