2.2 MS Network Monitor

MS Network Monitor is supplied with certain Microsoft products (such as SMS Server). Installing the program on Windows NT must be done very carefully and exactly according to the instructions in the guide. In the middle of the installation process, you will usually be asked to install Network Monitor Agent. If you do not follow the instructions exactly, the program will not function and will need to be reinstalled.

Starting with Windows 2000 and later, Network Monitor is supplied as a part of the server (Network Monitor Tools). On the other hand, Windows 2000 and XP restricts the use of the program. Therefore, we more often find Ethereal used in PCs.

The Network Monitor handles frame display well. Not only can it separate ...
