We can report that Solarwinds Network Performance Monitor works, and works well. But then there is a reason that Solarwinds software is widely considered to the number one vendor in network management software. Like all of Solarwinds' products, it's been built by IT pros who know what other IT pros want and need, in order to solve the problem with the least amount of hassle going.
As Mac OS is growing by leaps and bounds in the technical community does SolarWinds have plans to port the tools over to Mac support? I too am running my SW tools within a Windows VM inside of OS X, but would prefer not to have to do that. When we need a monitoring tool that is easy to install, supports monitoring and reporting out of the box, we like SolarWinds® Network Performance Monitor (NPM). NPM acts as a single pane of glass to provide complete and comprehensive network monitoring capabilities that complement some of the essential free tools you may already use. Does anyone know of a utility that will scan the network and return IP / Mac addresses of connected devices? Freeware would be best as there won't be any cash available to pay for this. *sad face* I like the SolarWinds line. Network Performance Monitoring Monitor any SNMP-enabled device for a complete view of network performance in an easy to understand, actionable dashboard. Visually monitor performance statistics in real time.
SolarWinds Network Performance Monitor (NPM) is a powerful and affordable network monitoring software that enables you to quickly detect, diagnose, and resolve network performance problems and outages.
As you would expect, the interface is sleek, well-designed and will be intuitive to anyone who has worked on mid-large-scale IT network setups before. The Customizable single-pane-of-glass network monitoring software also means that users can have fully customizable web-based network performance dashboards, views, and charts.
As well as that, all Network Managers will be relieved that customisable performance and availability reports come as standard, and there are over 100 out-of-the-box templates to choose from.
