The only book dedicated Sniffer, a powerful tool created for real-time
enterprise network fault diagnosis and performance management.
Sniffer Network Optimization and Troubleshooting Handbook introduces the reader
to the vast functionality of the suite of Sniffer Solutions from Network
Associates but ultimately focuses on the affordable and most widely used Sniffer
Product - Sniffer Pro LAN Network Analyzer. This book will begin with the basic
features of Sniffer Pro LAN and then move the reader through the impressive tips
and tools available for gathering data, analyzing, troubleshooting, resolving
and securing problems on their network.
In today's day and age a company is judged by the quality of it is network. To
ensure sustained network performance and to avoid costly network downtime,
network administrators need to be proficient with advanced networking monitoring
and troubleshooting solutions, like Sniffer, to be able to detect, observe, and
resolve network problems before these problems impact users or customers.
Sniffer from Network Associates is a suite of tools including Sniffer Portable
Analysis Suite, Sniffer Distributed Analysis Suite, Sniffer Reporting, Sniffer
Optical, and Sniffer Wireless. With a clear market leadership, Sniffer Solutions
are employed in over 80% of the enterprise networks of the Fortune 100. Sniffer
has also received wide industry acclaim from the experts and its everyday users.
In 2000 Sniffer was named one of the 10 most computer products of the decade by
Network Computing Magazine. It also received the "Editor's Choice" award from PC
Magazine during the second quarter of 2001.
Over 60,000 individuals have taken advantage of theeducational services offered
by Sniffer Technologies - aptly named Sniffer University. Coupled with the
introduction of the Sniffer Certified Professional Program (SCPP) as a
replacement for the popular CNX (Certified Network Expert) certification, an
aptitude with Sniffer Solutions is a "must-have" for system administrators.
Only book to offer comprehensive coverage of Sniffer Pro LAN.
Supplemental study materials for the SCPP certification track. As of April 2001,
the CNX certifications track became inactive. Current CNXs looking to update
their certifications to the new SCPP track are going to need to bring themselves
up to speed on the new offerings from the Sniffer family of products before
desertification.
Up to the Minute Web-based Support. Once the reader understands the concepts of
network hardware, configuration, and implementation, they can receive up-to-the
minute links, white papers, and analysis for one year at solutions@syngress.com.
A great all-in-one resource for those who need to get familiar with Sniffer Pro.
Being relatively new to Sniffer Pro, I was unsure what book to pick up for it,
but I am very happy with this one! Using this book takes you from the very
simple foundations of Sniffer Pro, to installing it and using it, to performing
advnaced configuring and usage on networks of varying types including ethernet
and token ring. This is the best book I have seen for getting up to speed with
Sniffer Pro and looks to be a sound investment when it comes time to approach
the SCP exam. I have seen some other material on Sniffer Pro, but this is the
only one that seems targeted to all users, not just the top of pyramid network
geeks.
