Ethernet diagnostic software

23 June 2010 Computer/Embedded Technology

IntraVUE 2 is the latest generation of software from Network Vision, aimed specifically at the issues facing Ethernet deployment in process or manufacturing applications. The software is designed to assist individuals who are not network experts but do require a method to quickly identify the typical problems that can create loss of production data or even a process shutdown.

Now fully Web-based, IntraVUE can be installed in a process or manufacturing network to be viewed as well as managed remotely. From simple LANs to complex multiVLAN Cisco installations, the software now provides automatic and accurate real-time viewing which highlights the major sources of plant floor disruptions. IntraVUE not only highlights but also generates alarms for the most common plant floor problems.

Typical problems such as duplicate IP and MAC addressing, cabling problems (connector or grounding) can be detected, along with broadcast storms or excessive bandwidth, intermittent device problems, device lock-ups, misbehaving or overloaded devices, foreign laptops connecting, and devices or connections being moved.

IntraVUE features the ability to automatically discover all of the devices on the network and then automatically map their connections, and provides colour coded, real-time view of devices and connections. IntraVUE is engineered to run well on low-performance Windows based platforms. It is compatible with many browser applications and typically displays 500 devices in 5 seconds or less.
