Hi,

We are proud to anounce the newest member of the Beholder ethernet
monitoring family, The Spectre. 
The Spectre is developed by Marc, and is used in our neural
network based 'intelligent' network application. We are trying to
build a system that will detect errors in the network without polling the
managed nodes.

The Specter is a Beholder application that measures the behaviour of a
configurable set of ethernet nodes. Behaviour includes info about 
connections, protocols used , interarrival times 
and packet lengths  of the managed nodes. 
The Spectre will collect this information real time without
interfering with the ethernet network.

The Spectre presents its findings in two different ways. First there
is an optional display presentation. Second,  there is an SNMP
based distribution of its findings. 

Users of existing Beholder applications like The Beholder and The
Gobbler will be familiar with the user interface and SNMP interface of
The Spectre. 

Take my word for it, The Spectre is So Great, it's Spooky :v) .

Jan
