MultiMON

Name:

MultiMON

Version:

1.1 (1998)

Description:

MultiMON is a monitor that collects, organises and displays all the IP multicast traffic that is detected at the location of the MultiMON Server. While MultiMON is a general purpose muticast monitoring tool, it is intended in particular to monitor multicast traffic on local network segments and should assist a network administrator in managing the traffic on an Intranet. Multimon is built on a client/server basis which allows the data collectors (Servers) to be distant from the GUI front end displays (Clients). The software includes an RTCP monitoring and recording tool (MERCInari) that allows an analysis of the RTCP data for QoS management. A session can be recorded for later analysis. This latter feature is particularily useful for evaluating RTP implementations.
