│▒┌┘ Gobbler - Network Packet Analyzer
└─┘
The Gobbler is (just as the Beholder and the Sage) a member of the Beholder-
family, the second generation Ethernet analyzer software DNPAP-group at the
Delft University of Technology. The first generation was the NetCure set
(NetMon, NetCapt, NetView). If you are interested in history: look for
NETCUR.ZIP (GO NOVA on Compuserve's CIS in DL-14).
The Gobbler is run on a DOS-based Ethernet + packet driver networked PC.
Use the appropriate packet-driver (e.g. ne1000.com) from pkdr9.zip before
starting GOBBLER.EXE. Its screen layout is much like the NetMon screen setup
from the NetCure family. Together with the Beholder it offers all
functionality presented by the NetCure programs and much more...
To get the Beholder: GO NOVA on CIS and download BEHOLD.ZIP from DL-14.
NetCure was born (with NetMare as an alias) as a first offshoot of several
projects bundled in the Data Network Performance Analysis Project (DNPAP) at
the Delft University of Technology, Faculty of Electrical Engineering,
Laboratory of Computer Architecture and Digital Techniques. DNPAP's research
group has been initiated by Jan van Oorschot. The main attention of this group
is focused on the analysis and modelling of complex network structures, in
order to increase overall network performance.
The DNPAP group offers you, (in cooperation with Artefact for the LAN part of
the world), a taste of things to come: a universal and powerful set of
network tools to support proper network management.
To reach the large group of network managers worldwide, Jan van Oorschot
decided to offer NetCure and its decendants for free through the Internet. As
we have had a long and mutually stimulating relationship with Jan & his DNPAP
group, Artefact adds to his effort to bring DNPAP's network management tools
under the attention of as much 'LAN managers' as possible, by uploading these
tools to various public BBSs.
NetCure has been very popular (thousands of copies have been downloaded up
till now!). People wanting to be kept informed on further developments
(Sage...) from the DNPAP group & Artefact, wishing to receive support on
NetCure/Beholder/Gobbler matters and eager to (financially) stimulate the
ongoing work, can register by sending in the accompanying registration form
with a cheque for US $100. (50% will go to the DNPAP group, 50% to Artefact)
To register fill in the registration form (REGISTER.FRM) and upload/fax/mail
it to:
Artefact Network Services (ANS)
