- Lanalyse! Network Performance Analysis Tool
-
- (c) 1991 by EbSoft
-
- Lanalyse allows you to remotely monitor the various status
- information provided by NETBIOS on any NETBIOS network node. You
- need not have started your network operating system to run Lanalyse.
-
- HOW TO USE THE PROGRAM:
-
- You may create a text file named NodeList.LAN in the current
- directory. This file contains the names of the nodes you wish to
- scan, each on its own line with a <CR><LF>. These names can be
- any valid NETBIOS name, i.e. machine name or user name. If
- NodeList.LAN does not exist, only the local node will be scanned
- for analysis.
-
- After determining which of the specified nodes are avilable on the
- network, Lanalyse presents you with a picklist of available nodes
- on the left of the screen, and on the right side of the screen, a
- detailed analysis of NETBIOS status for the selected node.
-
- The information presented is as follows:
-
- Adapter: This is the 6-byte LAN adapter permanent node name.
- Type: Adapter type - TRN = Token Ring Network Adapter
- PCN = PC Network Adapter
- Software Version: major and minor NETBIOS revision levels
- Hours Up: Time since last adapter reset.
-
- Error Counts:
- Total Packets Xmit/Rcv: Packet counts since reset.
- Rcv Reject: Occasions where received frames were rejected
- Xmt Reject: Occasions where transmetted frames were rejected
- Data Frame: Count of bad data frames received
- Aborted Xmit: Count of unsuccessful transmissions
- Retransmit: Count of retransmitted frames
- No Buffers: Occasions where receiver was out of buffers
- T1 Timeout: Number of times the adapter's T1 timer has expired
- Ti Timeout: Number of times the adapter's Ti timer has expired
-
- Network Resources:
- NCBs available: Amount of Network Control Blocks presently available
- NCBs last reset: Max NCBs as set at last reset
- Max NCBs: Max NCBs as defined by driver/card
- Sessions Active: Amount of NETBIOS Sessions presently active
- Sessions last reset: Max sessions as set at last reset
- Max Sessions: Max sessions as defined by driver/card
-
- Node Names: This is a listing of up to eight NETBIOS node names
- assigned to the adapter. The actual count is shown.
-
- In its default mode, Lanalyse will only recognise machine names
- under PC LAN Program, because PCLP appends an ASCII 03 to the end
- of user names. You can include user names in the scan by using
- the /PCLP switch when invoking Lanalyse, or by setting a DOS
- environment variable called LANALYSE to /PCLP with the DOS command
- SET LANALYSE=/PCLP
-
- Press <F1> within Lanalyse for the help screen.
