Lookin for a NMS such as CiscoWorks network management software

[eclipse81]

hi everybody

I 'm lookin' for CiscoWorks network management software or equivalent on support section on cisco website support.

I want it to configure snmp on my catalyst 2950 and get some results likes input and output traffic rate on my catalyst, all trafic generated by equipment connected on my catalyst with some details likes equipment ip, input and output trafic rate, graph and son on.

I don't find it on the cisco website so I think they'll have an equivalent on the website but I don't know .

If someone has an idea or a link...

Thank you

Hi there,

The Solarwinds ORION product range is pretty good at this sort of thing and tends to eb a bit cheaper. In fact, there are a number of free tools on their website that you can try out.

The Free network device monitor may well give you the answers that you seek,

Hope this helps,

Cheers
