Bandwidth and Network Usage Monitoring Made Easy:
PRTG Traffic Grapher is an easy to use Windows software for monitoring and classifying bandwidth usage. It provides system administrators with live readings and long-term usage trends for their network devices. The most common usage is bandwidth management, but you can also monitor many other aspects of your network like memory and CPU utilizations.
Monitoring Helps You To Optimize Your Network:
With PRTG Traffic Grapher you will receive bandwidth and network usage data that helps to optimize the efficiency of your network. Understanding bandwidth and resource consumption is the key to better network management:
- Avoid bandwidth and server performance bottlenecks
- Find out what applications or what servers use up your bandwidth
- Deliver better quality of service to your users by being proactive
- Reduce costs by buying bandwidth and hardware according to actual load
How Network and Bandwidth Usage Monitoring works:
PRTG Traffic Grapher is running on a Windows machine in your network for 24 hours every day and constantly records the network usage parameters. The recorded data is stored in an internal database for later reference.
Using an easy to use Windows interface you can configure the monitored sensors as well as create usage reports. For remote access PRTG Traffic Grapher comes with a built-in web server to provide access to graphs and tables.
All common methods for network usage data acquisition are supported:
SNMP: Simple Network Management Protocol 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.
Packet Sniffing: With its built-in Packet Sniffer PRTG can inspect all network data packets travelling in your LAN or WLAN to calculate the bandwidth usage.
NetFlow: The NetFlow protocol is supported by most Cisco routers to measure bandwidth usage. Although being the most complex type to set up it is also the most powerful method suitable for high traffic networks.
