Think of PRTG Network Monitor as your personal 24/7 protocol analyzer that ensures non-stop monitoring (you do not have to be logged into your machine to keep monitoring running).
PRTG's powerful monitoring engine is capable of monitoring up to several thousand sensors simultaneously. Each sensor can be "tagged" allowing for easy navigation through a long list of sensors. Network and bandwidth monitoring data generated by PRTG Network Monitor is accessed via a web-based front end. Extensive data filtering can be applied for Netflow and Packet Sniffing based on monitoring preferences.
Download and set up your protocol analyzer with either the Freeware or free trial.
As your total network monitoring and analysis tool, PRTG supports data acquisition via SNMP, packet sniffing and NetFlow protocol. Using its built-in protocol analyzer, packet analyzer and other analysis tools, PRTG can classify network traffic by IP address, protocol or user-defined, custom parameters.

Fully configured reports are available in HTML, Excel, TIF, RTF, or PDF formats.
PRTG's internal database allows for fast and efficient storage of collected data. Optional ZIP file data backup is also offered as well as purging of old data.
