PingPlotter is a great visual tool that shows graphically the latency and lost packet that has had a link (data or Internet). Not only shows the above indicated but also shows the jumps or trace made from the server to its destination observing at each point the milliseconds that it takes to send and receive the response as latency.
This monitoring software helps in seeing what problem a network device has, by simply indicating the IP address or the DNS name, it sends ICMP packets from the interface that is configured for that reason and in less than 1 minute an interface is generated where You can see latency by colors (green, yellow and red), packet loss represented by red lines, milliseconds of jitter. If there is latency or packet loss in any device within your network means that you have a problem in the middle (wired) or there is a saturation in your trunk link.
The tool is light, easy to install and configure. It offers alarms that you can customize when a link falls or rises, in addition to recording such falls in a plain text file. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
As for its operation is exceptional however I do not find much documentation of the alarms and their parameters, or rather if there is documentation but not examples... Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
