Remote Network Performance Monitoring

Feb 2, 2011

I need to track and record all functionality, connectivity speeds and applications of a remote laptop. Here's the basic set up of my problem:We have 40 medical facilities in five Western States, each with up to 30+ pieces of hardware including thin clients, PCs, laptop computers and wall mounted touch screen kiosks operating on a variety of OS including primarily XP pro, then Linux and transitioning into Win 7.We have installed Aruba wireless network in each building on which our mobile medical cart laptops connect. Each facility has a different mix of primary and backup/failover ISP from DSL, Cable, T1 to Bonded T. All are at or exceed 22MB down, 5MB up save the T1s at their dedicated 1.5 and we monitor speeds and network stats trhough our gateway device. PfSense.All employees connect through an RDP (Remote Connection) to our hosting company in Atlanta, GA where the farm of about 28 servers reside hosting our medical, email and office applications.We regularly are contacted by nursing and clinical office staff complaining that "the network is slow". We review connection speeds, loads, ping times and confirm that there are no ISP Speed issues that are causing the "Slowness". However when we review exactly what the nurses mean by "slow" it invariably turns to how long it takes to log in to the RDP sessions and access then run their medical applications in the RDP. They often sit and wait for the RDP to load for five minutes or more and complain of waiting for their typing to catch up in the applications they work in.

We believe the slowness occurs once they are connected in the RDP and that their problems are occurring at the hosting company's facility, getting through their firewall, through profile management and server hardware/software but we can not prove this is the case because the hosting company always claims they see perfectly acceptable speeds and access on their side and we are locked out from access to monitor tehir environment. Changing hosting companies is probelmatic because they are specialised in our industry and leaving would be diffcult. I need some software that I can install on a few machines in a select few of our facilities that will track and record the actual user experience so that we can watch and review exactly what is happening, what the network stats look like and precisely where the user is experiencing "slowness".

Cisco VPN :: ASA5505 Remote SNMP Monitoring Over VPN

Apr 3, 2012

We currently have a few 5505s installed at client sites which are connected via s2s ipsec VPN to our datacenter's 5510.  We are using Nagios to monitor the local data center and remote client infrastructure (over the VPNs) which has been working well.
 
We would like to also monitor the remote 5505s using SNMP over the s2s tunnels but it doesn't seem to be working, the connection is timing out.  We've configured the remote 5505s with the same snmp statement we used on the 5510 (snmp-server host inside <remote datacenter IP> poll community ***** version 2c) yet the Nagios SNMP check cannot connect to the remote 5505s.  We've also tried the command using 'outside' without any luck, not sure how to get SNMP to route over the VPN.

Cisco Switches :: Remote Monitoring Of SG200 SLM2008T EU

Jan 5, 2012

I've just gotten a SG200-08 (SLM2008T-EU), which I would like to monitor remotely from Cacti using SNMP. It seems however, that this switch has no SNMP support - is this correct? Does this mean that there is no way to monitor traffic over the switch's ports short of making a script access the web UI?

Network Monitoring Software That Would Monitors Constant Network Connectivity

Mar 25, 2011

Anu network monitoring software that would monitors constant network connectivity? I am working with a company who uses an Access database that checks members in and out of a gym. 6-8 people work in the database at any given time. Several times a day the users will get a network error and they have to force the database to close. Sometimes this happens to all of the users and sometimes to just certain ones. I believe the problem lies with the database (due to poor programming) but I want to monitor the network connectivity to see if and when the network connection is dropped and determine if that corresponds with when users begin seeing network errors in the database.

Monitoring Traffic Going On In Network??

Aug 5, 2012

I have a questions about protecting my network. My parent's have rented out my room, since I'm going to college, and I was wondering if there was a way to monitor the traffic that is going on in my network. Once the guy moved in, the wireless connection speed drastically decreased. I was barely able to sure the internet on my laptop. I currently have about 8 devices connected to my network. I am running a wired connection for my desktop so I don't feel any lag, but everything else runs on wifi.

MAC 10.7 Monitoring Available Bandwidth On Network

Jul 18, 2013

I was wondering if there is a way to monitor the total bandwidth available at any given time? My ISP claims and is charging me for a certain amount of bandwidth but I suspect that during the day I am getting much less.

I would like to track available bandwidth continuously (or every 5, 10, 15 minutes) and log that data so I can show them the results. I'm on a Mac 10.7 but can use Windows XP also.

Poor Network Performance On Belkin Router?

Nov 30, 2012

I run my virgin broadband through an old NTL modem and a Belkin router. I haveit all attached to a computer in my study along with a new 6TB Buffalo Nas drive. The computer has GIGABIT LAN. I use Belkin powerline units to relay the network around the house. In my lounge i have a blu ray player, AV amp and my sky box attached to the network via the Belkin powerline units and all run ok. This week i have added a Cambridge audio streamer but i am suffering now from a lot of dropouts and network failures escpecially when trying to stream music from my NAS. all seem to be set up correctly as per the manuals. I have spent a lot on this unit specificallly to stream my music so this is really important to get working correctly The powerline units can flash blue (fast ) or orange (slower) but i only see the orange light .My local dealer says i need to upgrade my Modem/Router and has suggested an ASUS RT-N66U which I understand is a modern 2.5/5ghz model . he says my system is overloaded

A few questions.

Is this a suitable modem for me to use on my Virgin cable broadband? (apparently there are two alternatives types of modem/router)
Is there a better alternative unit ?
Could there be another cause for my problems and if so how do i diagnose them ?

Cisco WAN :: Network Performance When Upgraded To IOS 12.4.24.T5 On 881W

Jun 13, 2011

I have a Cisco 881W router.  It has historically run IOS 12.4 (20.T3) without issue.  I recently upgraded the IOS to version 12.4 (24.T5).  Once I made that upgrade, my ability to fully throttle my downstream bandwidth became seriously limited and variable going from a steady 6Mbps to an unreliable 2-3Mbps.  No other changes were made to my environment.  The degredation in performance was so bad that my AppleTV would no longer stream Netflix or YouTube.I downgraded back to the original IOS 12.4 (20.T3) and the downstream bandwidth and variability issues disappeared.  As well, my ability to stream movies or videos with my AppleTV on Netflix or YouTube returned without issue.I wonder if upgrading to IOS 12.4.24.T5 enabled some new commands that I'm not catching or there is something else at play that I'm totally missing.

Monitoring Computer On Wifi Network?

Jan 31, 2012

My ISP provide me with Thomson TG799vn (Gateway). The modem can be used with LAN cable and wifi function on it too.

The only computer that's directly connected to it is mine and I am currently using Ubuntu Oneiric and Windows 7. Is there anyway that I could monitor user (disconnect / ban any unwanted connection) connected to my modem.

From the gateway page I can see the below info but do not know how to use it :

user-0efb5820d0
Information
Status:Active
Type:Generic Device
Connected To:WLAN (Wireless)
Allowed on WLAN:Yes
Addressing
Physical Address:00:1a:13:b6:4d:ce
IP Address Assignment:DHCP
IP Address:192.168.1.70
Always use the same IP address:No
DHCP Lease Time:0 days, 23:03:02

I have downloaded many software but it's useless because it provide me with none of the function I required.

D-Link DIR 655 - Office Network Traffic Monitoring

Oct 4, 2011

We currently have a 3/3 Etherloop. We dont have any internal IT as we are still small and while not a networking guy I can at least understand what is going on. Right now at peaks we are hitting 100% utilization.

We run a call center in house so I am trying to determine at the very least how much of this traffic is from voice data compared to everything else.Was running through our networking configuration and it just seems off to me. The following is the flow.

-Etherloop Demarcation >
-Cisco Integrated Access Device >
-D-Link DIR 655 Wireless Router >
-24port HP Procurve switch >
-24port HP Procruve switch >

Everything up to the first switch is a single line. The first switch has all ports running out except 1 which goes to the second switch. The second switch runs out to machines as well.

I am at the networking level where I understand a switch but have no idea what the IAD really does between the etherloop modem and the wireless router.

For some reason I feel like the router should not be setup in that manner and should be off of the switch. With the cisco IAD running directly to the first switch. So my 2 big questions are.

1. Does this setup even make sense.

2. Whats the easiest way to monitor traffic, at the very least it would be nice to see real time up/down and be able to log in. Then I guess using ports figure out what is being used by voice. My first guess was just putting a machine between the IAD and first switch and monitor and log the traffic.

Cisco Wireless :: AP541N Poor Performance Of Network Connection

Dec 5, 2011

We have two Cisco AP541N running our wireless network in the office. They're configured with the same SSID, so that people are automatically switched between the two access points depending on their location in the office.
 
Frequently we are experiencing very poor performance of our wireless connections and it seems to be related to when 4-5 clients are connected to one access point. After restarting it (which also moves the 5 clients to the other access point), the performance problem goes away for a while.
 
I've upgraded one to firmware version AP541N-K9-2.0(1) (the other is running AP541N-K9-1.8(0)), but it doesn't seem to work.

Cisco Switching/Routing :: Network Performance - 3850 Versus 2960

I have a network coming up for a switch refresh.  Management is pushing for 2960s and I would like 3850s.  We are running Cisco Voice and Video over the network.  I saw a few things that seemed to be in favor of a Layer 3 switch vs. a Layer 2 switch.  Some items like better performance due to switching based on IP vs. switching based on MAC.  Some information that will show the 3850 to be a better choice or that the 2960 is capable.

I don't want to connect to a specific pc just join the network itself. When I logged into the router management I thought I would be able to just specify a remote IP address that would be allowed to connect to the LAN as if it were local but there is no obvious way of doing that. The router is an SMC.

Remote Desktop Not Working From Outside Of Network?

Feb 17, 2011

So i'm trying to set up remote desktop connection for my desktop at (xp pro, sp2).

I've went through all the steps:

- allowed users to connect remotely (system properties)

- added to firewall exceptions

- opened up port 3389

I've disabled firewall and virus protection for now as well to test.

It works fine when I try connecting from my laptop at home by opening up the remote desktop program, and entering the local static ip address that i've configured on the desktop (i.e. 192.168.x.x);

however, when I try to connect outside of this network (on the road or office), I can't seem to connect (yes, I replaced the ip 192.168.x.x with the public ip of the desktop which I got from whatsmyip.org). I also can't ping the public ip of the desktop (can only ping the 192.168.x.x ip of the desktop)

Again, router port is open to port 3389, firewall is turned off on both the desktop and laptop, and virus protection is off.
