Engineer's Toolset contains software applications ranging from configuration management, bandwidth and network performance monitoring to award-winning discovery and fault management tools

The award-winning Engineer’s Toolset enables network engineers to diagnose and manage data networks with 48 tools divided into seven categories, including:

Network Monitoring
Network Discovery
Cisco Tools
Security
SNMP Tools
Ping & Diagnostic
IP Address Management

Network Monitoring

* Toolset Launchpad - Provides immediate access to all 48 Engineer's Toolset applications and tool grouping customization based on the user's network engineering preferences.
* Network Performance Monitor - Monitors and alerts on availability, bandwidth utilization, CPU load, memory and disk space utilization on hundreds of network elements.
* Bandwidth Gauges - Provides auto-publish to the Web and historical graphing.
* SNMP Real-Time Graph - Monitors any SNMP managed device.
* Real-Time Interface Monitor - Displays many statistics from routers and switches simultaneously.
* Advanced CPU Load - Monitors the real-time load on routers.
* CPU Gauges - Displays a single switch, server or router's CPU performance.
* Watch It! - Monitors the availability of several devices and notifies you the moment a router, circuit or server becomes unavailable.
* Syslog Server - Listens for incoming Syslog messages on UDP port 514 and then decodes the messages for logging purposes.


Network Discovery

* IP Network Browser - Allows you to perform a detailed discovery on one device or scan a range of subnets.
* IP Address Management - Automatically determines what IP addresses are not in use and how long it has been since they have been used.
* Network Sonar - Uses an SNMP discovery engine to create a detailed discovery database of a high-speed data network.
* MAC Address Discovery - Scans the subnet on which a computer is attached and constructs a table of relating IP address to MAC address, DNS, network card manufacturer and manufacturer address.
* Subnet List - Discovers all subnets and masks on a network.
* SNMP Sweep - Queries an IP address range defined and then locates both used and unused IP addresses.
* DNS Audit - Inventories an IP address and validates the correct forward and reverse resolution of domain names.
* Ping - SolarWinds' version of the "Simple Ping" tool keeps a running response time log and allows exporting to HTML, RTF and text files.
* Ping Sweep - Performs a very fast scan across an entire range of IP addresses.
* Port Scanner - Allows testing for open TCP ports across IP Address and port ranges or selection of specific machines and ports.
* Switch Port Mapper - Is an auto-discovery Layer 2 and Layer 3 port mapper.


Cisco Tools

* NetFlow Realtime Tools - Stores up to one hour of Cisco NetFlow data and displays inbound and outbound traffic separately for granular analysis and troubleshooting.
* Config Downloader - Provides the ability to download a configuration file from a Cisco CMTS or network router to a PC.
* Config Editor/Viewer - Extracts the Cisco Router running config and automatically archives it for future reference.
* Config Uploader - Provides the ability to upload a new configuration to a Cisco router and change any Cisco configuration parameter via SNMP.
* Config Compare - Compares the Running Config of a Cisco Router with the Startup Config stored in non-volatile NVRAM.
* Advanced CPU Load - Monitors and displays real-time load on routers.
* Proxy Ping - Remotely initiates a PING test from any remote Cisco router to any other SNMP-enabled device.
* Router CPU Load – Allows you to monitor the load on multiple Cisco routers concurrently.
* Router Password Decryption - Decrypts any Type 7 Cisco passwords for Cisco routers.
* Router Security Check - Analyzes a Cisco router and determines if the SNMP community string is vulnerable.
* CPU Gauge - Monitors and graphically displays the CPU load on Windows 2000 machines, as well as Cisco routers and switches.
* IP Network Browser - Allows you to perform a detailed discovery on one device or scan a range of subnets.
* TFTP Server - Sends and receives multiple files concurrently.


Security

* SNMP Brute Force Attack - Attacks an IP address with SNMP queries to try and determine the SNMP read-only and read-write community strings.
* SNMP Dictionary Attack - Uses permutated hacker dictionaries to attack network devices in an attempt to break into them or discover their community strings.
* Remote TCP Reset - Remotely displays all active sessions on a terminal server, router, dial-in server, access server, etc.
* Router Password Decryption - Decrypts any Type 7 Cisco passwords for Cisco routers.
* Port Scanner - Allows testing for open TCP ports across IP Address and port ranges or selection of specific machines and ports.


SNMP Tools

* SNMP MIB Browser - Queries any remote device for software and hardware configurations via SNMP.
* MIB Walk - Walks the SNMP tree for a target device and dumps the value of each OID.
* Update System MIBs - Views, updates and publishes changes to the user descriptions fields for any SNMP device.
* MIB Viewer - Uses SolarWinds extensive MIB database to display any OID or table.
* SNMP Trap Receiver - Receives, logs and provides views of SNMP traps.
* SNMP Trap Editor - Modifies SNMP trap templates used by SolarWinds network management tools.


Ping & Diagnostic

* Ping - SolarWinds' version of the "Simple Ping" tool keeps a running response time log and allows exporting to HTML, RTF and text files.
* Ping Sweep - Performs a very fast scan across an entire range of IP addresses.
* Enhanced Ping – Displays results both graphically, as well as in a table at the bottom of the screen.
* DNS Analyzer - Visually displays the hierarchy of DNS resource records, including name server, cname, pointer, etc.
* Trace Route - Traces a route from your computer to any other device.
* Proxy Ping - Remotely initiates a ping test from any remote Cisco router to any other SNMP-enabled device.
* Spam Blacklist - Allows testing of IP addresses of mail servers and verifies the mail servers have not been blacklisted.
* TFTP Server - Sends and receives multiple files concurrently.
* WAN Killer - Tests the network connection to hardware devices by generating random traffic and adjusts the traffic to achieve desired load balance based on your requirements.
* Wake-On-LAN - Remotely "powers on" a computer.


IP Address Management Tools

* Advanced Subnet Calculator - Supports forward and reverse DNS resolution, response time and address translation while calculating subnets based on subnet mask, mask bits, host bits, number of subnets and hosts per subnet.
* DHCP Scope Monitor - Monitors Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol scopes and shows which scopes are low on addresses.
* DNS/WhoIs Resolver - Looks up and creates a detailed report on domain names, URLs, IP addresses, network address or e-mail addresses.
* DNS Analyzer - Visually displays the hierarchy of DNS resource records, including name server, cname, pointer, etc.
* DNS Audit - Inventories an IP address and validates the correct forward and reverse resolution of domain names.
* IP Address Management - Automatically determines what IP addresses are not in use and how long it has been since they have been used.
* Ping Sweep - Performs a very fast scan across an entire range of IP addresses.
