I have used the free version but I have limited experience with the professional version that comes with SMS. Basically I know they paid like 15K for an unlimited node license but I know there has to be a physical limit per server. I have been incorporating things like Nagios, perfparse, MRTG, nTop, et al in most solutions, and they work great as a team and in no doubt are more functional and scalable than netmon. What I would like to see from the list is if anyone out there has had to present this argument or something similar to a client or higher ups. If so what were some of the points that you brought out. Also while I continue to Google for exact limitations and features of the professional netmon, does anyone have this information or a link readily available?<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> Thanks<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> Curt<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> <div> <o:p> </o:p> </div> <o:p> </o:p> </div> </body> </html>
