We followed many recommendations of network administrators when developing this product, as a result, this ping tool has some unique features, which are not available in other similar programs. Once downloaded, installed and configured, this ping tool will perform very useful and important functions for you. Our ping tool acts like a network "babysitter," who permanently watches over your network devices. If there are no problems on your network at the moment, you might even forget that the ping tool is running on your computer. When problems do arise, the ping tool will notify you about them using several methods (play a sound file, send an email message, show a system tray message, etc.). Ping Assist Pro works as a Windows service and can retain alarm logs, ping logs and ping statistics. In the alarm log is detailed information about when the problem occurred and when it was eliminated. Ping statistics are in chronological order and can be viewed in a tabular and graphical form to view statistics for a selected device. These logs and statistics can be very useful when analyzing your network's operation
Remote Ping Monitor
The most popular solutions are the basic packages with 2 or 3 Monitors. Our clients buy these packages in order to use second and third Monitors as Remote Ping Monitors from where they can remotely manage the Ping Service module of ping tool.
You can add additional Ping Monitors to your basic package later, but buying basic packages with 2 or 3 Monitors at the same time will save you money.
How Ping Assist Pro works
Using the Local or Remote Ping Monitor you specify a list of IP-addresses of those devices that you want to monitor. For your convenience, you can use a scanner that will scan the desired range of addresses and add the detected devices to your list. For each device, you can assign an appropriate alarm notification, specify ping options and activate an alarm log, ping log and ping statistics. At specific intervals the ping tool will ping the network devices. The results (last response time, minimum response time, average response time, maximum response time, percentage of lost packets and duration of alarm situations) are listed alongside each controlled device.
