NetDecision Traffic Grapher (MRTG/PRTG type application)

The NetDecision Traffic Grapher (http://www.netmechanica.com/products/?
prod_id=1022) monitors network and bandwidth usage as well as various
other network parameters like memory usage and CPU utilization,
providing system administrators with live readings and periodical
usage trends to optimize the efficiency, layout, and setup of leased
lines, switches, routers, firewalls, servers, and other network
components.

NDTG (NetDecision Traffic Grapher) is an easy to use software that
monitors network parameters via SNMP or using custom scriptable
polling agents. It allows you to quickly and easily set up and run a
monitoring station for networks. With just a few mouse clicks you can
log the amount of data flowing through routers, monitor CPU and RAM
utilization, check disk space usage, etc.

The most common case is monitoring the bandwidth usage of leased
lines, routers, and firewalls via SNMP. You can also monitor many
other aspects of your network environment and computer
infrastructure.

NDTG provides out-of-the-box graphs and dashboards for CPU
utilization, memory usage, disk space usage, interface utilization,
service response times, interface errors etc. This helps users gain
better visibility into the performance of servers, routers and
switches and the overall network.

NDTG makes network performance monitoring effortless to set up and
users can quickly get live, daily, weekly, monthly, annual or custom
period graphs out-of-the-box.

NDTG allows users to setup monitoring of custom SNMP MIB variables.
Traffic Grapher makes network performance monitoring truly vendor-
independent. You only need access to the SNMP MIBs provided by your
vendor. Traffic Grapher allows you to monitor critical parameters of
any device and setup thresholds.

NDTG simplifies the process of setting up initial monitoring
configuration by discovering network devices such as routers,
switches, servers, printers etc automatically.

Monitoring Methods
SNMP is the basic method of gathering bandwidth and network usage
data. It can be used to monitor bandwidth usage of routers and
switches port-by-port as well as device readings like memory, CPU load
etc.
Generic (script based). With NetDecision Script Language provides
monitoring functions to aquire data from file system, XML, ftp,
Eventlog, read data via TCP/UDP, WMI, etc.
Data aggregation (Fromula based). Allows to calculate resulting values
data on several monitored values according to provided expression
Features
Runs on Windows 2000/XP/2003/Vista.
Comes with the set of preconfigured generic script monitors.
Provides automatic Network Discovery for easy monitor set up.
Allows unlimited number of monitors in the system.
Intuitive Windows user interface for data configuration and
retrieval.
Provides configuration wizards for novice users.
Results are shown in graphs that can be customized.
Provides dashboard panel with custom gauge indicators for more
convinient reading of results.
Distributed client-server application architecture allows multiple
clients to connect to a single server that performs data monitoring.
Complete MIB support. Any vendor MIB can be compiled and used in
NetDecision Traffic Grapher to pick up OIDs for monitoring.
OID library allows to maintain the collection of most commonly used
OIDs for quick configuration.
Customizable user interface.
