Possible features in future releases
This
list contains some features that may be implemented in future releases of
the MaaTec Network Analyzer. If you miss a feature or if you want a specific
feature rather soon, please send a short message to support@MaaTec.com.
- Additional report formats (RTF, XML, etc.)
- Daily or weekly summary reports
- Monitoring module that sends e-mails (or creates other messages) when
some traffic value exceeds a limit for a specific time
- Remote configuration of reports
- View of the network structure by evaluating routing packets of protocols
that contain the needed information for this task (e.g. OSI or OSPF)
- TCP- and/or OSI-connection monitoring with collection of fragmented packets
(this would allow to implement upper layer decoders as well)
- Decoder SDK that allows to build own extension DLLs for additional protocol
decoders in C++
