Survey of Network Performance Monitoring Tools
Abstract
This survey paper focuses on introduction of Network Performance Monitoring tools that have been developed and implemented over the last few years. In this paper, I have made every attempt to list most of the well known tools and organize the taxonomy of tools based on some criteria that will help you to decide whether you choose such tools or not. In addition to I briefly discuss some tools that can be used in some wide area of network performance measurement. I hope this paper will enable people working on computer networks to choose appropriate tools to meet their goals.
