| Overview
CommView
Remote Agent is a special, optional add-on for CommView
designed for remote network traffic monitoring.
It
allows CommView users to capture network traffic on
any computer where Remote Agent is running, regardless
of the computer's physical location. This new, unique
technology broadens your horizons: you are no longer
limited by your LAN segment or personal computer. If
you are in Tokyo and want to troubleshoot a complex
software installation in Amsterdam, just install CommView
Remote Agent on the target system and watch the important
TCP/IP traffic from the comfort of your office, as if
you were there!
After
the installation and simple configuration, CommView Remote
Agent is ready to accept connections from CommView. Once
the connection is established and the authentication is
successful, CommView Remote Agent is ready to capture
packets in its network segment and transmit them to CommView.
The transmitted packets are compressed to save bandwidth
and encrypted to ensure safe transmission over insecure
network channels. CommView has a flexible system of filters
that is capable of filtering out all undesired packets,
thus minimizing the bandwidth used for the TCP link between
CommView and CommView Remote Agent.
CommView
Remote Agent is an indispensable tool for networking,
software, and security professionals that can solve
a wide range of problems, such as monitoring multi-segment
LANs or remote software and network troubleshooting.
