I am new to network analysis tools but not to networks themselves. I have
a network of 15 servers and 20 workstations (all Win2K) all connected via
six, 16 port linksys switches in a star configuration. A perticular
vendors software is having problems and seem to think it is a network
problem. I have downloaded Ethereal and its documention and read through
it. I would like to use it to troubleshoot any network problems. This may
turn out to be a stupid question but, the problem I have is that after I
capture all the data how do I analyze it to determine that YES, there is a
network problem and where the problem is or that NO, there is no network
problem?. i.e. what do I look for in the captured data?
Any help will be highly appreciated.
Thanks
