We are running a small company major in customer service of a net-game, less than 50 staff working together. As generally, there are some problem occurs from time to time during working time. The majority symptom is the network speed slow down sharply suddenly, we can’t confirm the root source of the network congestion. It’s a large waste of time to figure it out that what and where exactly the problem is, it has been taking my mind for a very long time.
Last week, one of my game friend found on Linkedin.com, recommended a Chinese network sniffer – Colasoft Capsa, to monitor my network traffic and detect the problem in a very short time. Frankly, I really don’t believe there’s good software made in China, especially in network security. I just Try holding the mentality of it just because of my friend.
I downloaded their product and asked for the evaluation license key. Unexpectedly, I got it within 8 hours after I sent the application, I thought I’ll get it at least in 2 days due to the time difference. Another thing surprised me is the easy-to-use usability and the perfect UI design. I handled the network malfunction in a short time (seems 5 minutes) with this software. I really appreciate them and share my experience of my case.
First, under “Protocol Explorer”, I found BT in “Protocols” window, then locate it in the Explorer:
Then, at “Endpoints” window, we can quickly find out the local IP address who has the largest packets connection. Obviously, 192.168.1.128 is the prime culprit who leads the network congestion:
Additionally, you can find all the protocols, IP/Mac addresses in the Node Explorer, really a convenient explorer. I’m not familiar with this software at that time, I believe it won’t take more than 2 minutes if you are familiar with it. For such small-and-medium-sized enterprises like us, Capsa is really a good network monitor, and I made my decision to purchase its single seat license with 1 year maintenance.
