Sorry it took so long to reply. Work gets in the way... Nicolas Maton wrote:
hmmm, I still don't get the global picture?? You want to poll routers andso outside of your network ?
That's the idea I had, yeah. The traffic on my network is not hard to pull. We can analyze that data forever. What I'm curious about is the performance, or detection of problems in the routers that serve other networks, the gateways. Not like I'm curious about your internal network or anything, just there should be some way to determine the what, where, when of a boggle on the internet. I thought by now there'd be a nice package we could buy from somebody that would pinpoint the problem(s). I was told they haven't developed that yet and couldn't believe it.
If you have access to them you can use some monitoring software like Big Brother HP openvieuw Aprisma Spectrum CiscoWorks and so on..... If you mean something else please let me know so i can search an solution with you.
I'm not sure yet. Access is the rub, I think. Everyone is so proprietary these days. I suppose it doesn't matter.

I think I need to rephrase the question. I'm not thinking of diagnostics on a specific network, as in my company's intranetwork. I'm thinking there must be a set of diagnostic tools to determine where the problem is outside of my network. If its platform specific it wouldn't work very well, would it? I was just thinking again. A dangerous hobby.
