Anasil 2.2 is a network analyzer software that includes 10 Anasil desktop agents. It allows for analytical monitoring of network traffic and troubleshooting of network issues.
Some of the key features of ANASIL include network link monitoring and the creation and maintenance of a list of active network stations. With this program, you can easily test the network link and connection between stations, as well as report events that some network state parameters exceeded previously defined limits. Frame grabbing and analysis are also available.
For local area network supervisors, ANASIL has some especially useful functions. Media load distribution analysis can help you to identify the stations generating the most frame traffic, while point-to-point tests can help you to locate defected stations. The network profile and new station detection features can be used to detect intruders who connect to your network segment, and for inventory purposes.
If you're a network programmer, ANASIL could be an invaluable tool. Frame grabbing and analysis come in handy when testing communication between network applications running on different nodes, and it's easy to create decoders for your own communication protocols in the programmable protocol decoder. ANASIL is also capable of monitoring the status of the NetBIOS adapters on remote stations.
For network servicemen, ANASIL's protocol decoder and frame grabbing features can be essential for detecting and correcting network configuration problems. Point-to-point tests can also help you to check the network hardware.
It's worth noting that ANASIL is a Microsoft Windows 95/98/NT/2000 application that recognizes not only protocols with a Microsoft trademark, but it can also monitor activity of networks of the UNIX family, from Novell and Apple. If you're in the market for a comprehensive, Ethernet-based network analysis utility, ANASIL could be a fantastic option to consider.
