Carsten Schmidt and Appreciation Software for Windows
Interface Traffic Indicator, a graph utility to measure incoming and outgoing traffic on an interface in bits/sec, bytes/sec or utilization. Works on all SNMP-capable interfaces (computers, NICs, switches, routers, etc) with adjustable poll interval.
Fdbget.exe is a little tool to retrieve entries from the forwarding database of switches. It gives you a table of MAC to interface number. If you are looking for a specific MAC on a switch then simply enter the MAC or part of it into the field.
MultiPing Grapher is a further development of Perfping with the ability to graph up to 10 different ICMP results.
Multiple Interface Watcher (MIW) is a graph utility that shows the utilisation of up to 20 different network interfaces. The interfaces are defined in a file which is read by MIW. The data is requested using SNMP and percentage value are calculated.

What does it do and how does it work?
If you have problems with a service that does not start automatically after
a reboot because needed resources are not online yet, this software fixes
just this problem.
The name of this program is a little bit misleading but I could not come up
with something better. "Delayed service starter" would describe it better.
The ServiceWatchdog is started automatically after a reboot. After a predefined
time interval, this service tries to start a defined service. It will try to
start the service twice and then it gives up. No logs, event messages or other
information is written.
Installation
1. Install the service with the command "servicewatchdog /install"
Uninstall the service with the command "servicewatchdog /uninstall"
2. Start and stop the service in Computer Management. This creates the
needed registry keys.
3. Start regedit and select "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESoftwareCCSchmidtServiceWatchdog"
Edit the 3 keys according to your needs:
Servicename = service name of the service to be started (e.g. Clipsrv for
clipbook)
Interval = time interval between start of ServiceWatchdog and start of the
selected service in ms. Default is 300000 (5 minutes).
Active = run ServiceWatchdog or not. Possible values are "yes" and "no".
Default is "yes". (no surprises here).
Check that startup type of ServiceWatchdog is automatic.

How does it work and what does it do?
Software has been tested with log files from Squid 2.5 STABLE 5 for
Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP/2003
Open a log file and start analysis. Wait for the results which are shown
in an table (detailled view) and in a text field (summary). You may then
export the results to a file.
Squideff checks every line of the Squid log file and assigns occurrence
and traffic to the different cache codes. Afterwards, traffic from cache
and internet are calculated.
For this project I have decided to work with signed 64-bit integers in order
to work with large numbers (?2^63..2^63?1). Despite that, it may be possible
that values exceed this range. In that case, please tell me (not that I know
what to do about it).
The following codes are calculated as data coming from the cache:
- TCP_HIT
- TCP_REFRESH_HIT
- TCP_REF_FAIL_HIT
- TCP_IMS_HIT
- TCP_MEM_HIT
- TCP_OFFLINE_HIT
- UDP_HIT
The following codes are calculated as data coming from the internet:
- TCP_MISS
- TCP_REFRESH_MISS
- TCP_CLIENT_REFRESH_MISS
- TCP_SWAPFAIL_MISS
- UDP_MISS
The rest is shown as not considered for efficiency:
- TCP_NEGATIVE_HIT
- TCP_DENIED
- UDP_DENIED
- UDP_INVALID
- UDP_MISS_NOFETCH
- NONE

Performance Pinging
$0 - Carsten Schmidt
Performance Pinging, Perfping.exe
Version 2.0.1; May 2006
How does it work and what does it do?
Perfping is a tool that allows you to ping a host continuously or with a single
ping using different data volumes. This can give you an indication of the
performance of the route to your host. You can change the ping interval from 2
to 30 seconds using various timeouts. The timeout is always smaller than the pinging
interval. Results are written to log window and log file if so chosen.
Unreachable hosts have a value of 0 ms.
The analysis function sends various pings, 10 each of 10 bytes, 100 bytes, 500
bytes, 1 kbytes, 10 kbytes, 50 kybytes and 64 kbytes. The round trip times are
shown with the total and average times.
Comments:
- Errors are written to file and log window but may be shown later than
successfull pings when changing ping intervall and timeout during runtime
- Thanks to François Piette for the internet component suite, Angus Robertson
for the threaded version of Ping and Dr. Jürgen Kehrel for the graph component.
