ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a system for collecting and displaying statistical data for a plurality of local area networks (LANs). The data is collected in several remote nodes, each of which is attached to a local area network. The data is obtained by using a LAN driver that intercepts all records on the LAN. The records are sent to a collector process where statistics are accumulated into a shared memory area and then transferred to an archiver process in a management node. The archiver process writes the statistics to a history file while compressing older data to prevent the file from growing too large. Several display processes run currently in the management node to display the history data in various ways, updating the displays in a dynamic, real time, mode.
