CommView

CommView is a powerful network monitor, packet sniffer, and analyzer designed for LAN administrators, security professionals, network programmers, home users…virtually anyone who wants a full picture of the traffic flowing through a PC or LAN segment. Loaded with many user-friendly features, CommView combines performance and flexibility with ease of use unmatched in the industry.

This application captures every packet on the wire to display important information such as a list of packets and network connections, vital statistics, protocol distribution charts, and so on. You can examine, save, filter, import, and export captured packets, view protocol decodes down to the lowest layer with a full analysis of over 100 supported protocols. With this information, the tool can help you pinpoint network problems and troubleshoot software and hardware.

The tool includes a VoIP analyzer for an in-depth analysis, recording, and playback of SIP and H.323 voice communications. For remote monitoring tasks, you can use a special, optional add-on for the app: CommView Remote Agent. It allows Comm View users to capture network traffic on any computer where Remote Agent is running, regardless of the computer's physical location. This powerful and unique technology broadens your monitoring range: you are no longer limited by your LAN segment or personal computer.
