NetDoppler
NetDoppler™ performs route discovery, latency tests, and throughput tests to remote hosts. NetDoppler builds a tree of IP nodes representing the packet path and is ready to perform serious testing and baselining from the moment you install it. There's no need for specialized software such as SNMP or remote monitoring agents! NetDoppler also provides extensive statistics and graphing functions to easily interpret your results.
NetDoppler utilizes several features of the ICMP Echo (Ping), IP and DNS protocols to perform a variety of tasks and tests on remote hosts to help you check latency and throughput as well as isolate problems. NetDoppler provides extensive statistics and graphing functions to easily interpret your results. Unique to NetDoppler is the ability to perform throughput tests based on both a single packet as well as packet streams to a remote host and back. This allows you to test the effect of latency on a client/server application that sends a single packet and receives a single reply (i.e. a 1:1 command/reply window) vs. an application that is able to send and receive multiple packets in succession to "fill the pipe" between the client and server.
