2991.0. "seen such reports on PW3.3 PC" by BERFS4::NORD () Tue Nov 21 1995 05:23


	Hi you gurus of Probewatch,


	Have done some network analyzing at OTIS, Berlin, Germany. My idea was,
	to install ten (10) packetprobes somewhere in the network and read the
	segment and host statistics in as I do it in my office. So thought so
	done. I leave the probes installed for a week and then I start with
	the reports.

	The first probe I used for reporting was "beopp". I clicked on the
	first report (xxxxxxxx.xxe) for the start time and the last report
	for the ending date. The PC is playing something on the HDD and is then
	ready. I clicked on MSDOS, gone to the c:\probew\reports directory,
	and what's there? Nothing!!!

	Brood, brood and study. 

	I leave MSDOS and start segment statistics, starting at a day at 06:00
	o'clock (a.m.) and ending at the same day at 18:30 o'clock (06:30 p.m.)
	Date 15.10.95 and 16.10.95 didn't give any report on segment statistic,
	host statistic is also strange.

	But look at the appended reports!!! Pleas have a look at the percentage
	of the packet size and packet type!!!

	I need some help about this as soon as possible, 'cause I have three
	measuring strings, all with 10 probes, and this was the first analyzed
	probe. 


	Greetings

	Wolfgang Nord
	MCS Berlin, Germany


	Software version of sampling Probewatch is 3.2, analyzing Probewatch
	is 3.3, both for Windows

2991.1Do I have to ask on a other place?BERFS4::NORDMon Nov 27 1995 01:4517
    
    
    Hey out there in the field, sometimes supporting this product,
    
    is there noone, who can explain from where these errors in the
    statistical mathematic come from?
    
    I have these problem seen on other reports I have done for the customer
    and I think, I/we can't sell this product to the customer, 'cause I'm
    unable to tell only good stories about the product without having some
    airplains in my belly.
    
    So please be so kind and give me some information about the problem
    I've seen.
