In-reply-to: <19990524135936.5702.rocketmail@web504.yahoomail.com> To: "Mark L. Holloway" Cc: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Message-id: MIME-version: 1.0 Content-type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG FreeBSD does offer quite a few SNMP/packet capture utils. For SNMP, check out /usr/ports/net/ucd-snmp. This offers command line snmpget, snmpwalk, snmpset, etc. utils. For a more graphical (i.e. HP OpenView-type) interface, look into scotty, or check out http://www.gxsnmp.org. For good packet capture utils, I like the ubiquitous tcpdump, or traffshow, or the nice GUI ethereal. Trafshow and ethereal can be found in /usr/ports/net, and tcpdump comes pre-installed in /usr/sbin. A good decoder to go along with tcpdump is /usr/ports/net/tcpshow.
