Deployment

|
In general you need to install Network Probe at a spot in your network
where it can see all the traffic you want it to collect and analyze.
Promiscuous mode network interface
Network Probe must be installed on at least one computer on any
network segment
that you want to monitor. This computer must have a network card with
promiscuous-mode
capability, and be able to see all the traffic crossing that
network segment.
Monitored network port
If you want to monitor a
switched network,
Network Probe must be installed on a computer connected to a
monitor-port
on the switch to be able to see
all the network traffic crossing the network.
Remote Network Monitoring
You can install Network Probe on any computer connected to the network you
want to monitor, and log in to that probe using a standard
java-enabled
web browser from anywhere on the network.

This enables you to monitor many network segments remotely, from a single site, or from any
other place having access to the probe. There is no need to install any client-side
software, just use a web browser to log in and inspect the network traffic statistics.
