Lightspeed Systems have a bandwidth management tool that can guarantee the bandwidth for your critical applications.
It does this by blocking or limiting the bandwidth that is used by non-priority applications. This is similar to what packet shapers do.
This tool can monitor everyone's activities from:
- File names and sizes of uploads/downloads
- Search-engine keywords used
- Instant messaging sessions
- Applications inventory and usage
- Unknown/suspicious programs
- Processes run
- E-mails sent and received
- Virus activity
- Busiest traffic types (http, https, SMTP, Kazaa, Gnutella, etc.)
Unfortunately we didn't get a chance to test this product because of our tight deadline for this month. If you're interested in testing this product yourself be warned of the system requirements.
Just to give you an idea you will need a Windows machine loaded with IIS, SQL Server 2000, and Microsoft.NET Framework 1.1. The minimum hardware requirements for this software are an Intel P4 2.0GHz processor with 1GB of RAM (2GB recommended), and two Ethernet cards.
