VisualRoute Features

VisualRoute Personal Edition combines essential networking utilities -- ping, Whois, traceroute and reverse DNS -- to determine precisely where and how traffic is flowing on an Internet connection, providing a geographical map of the route, and the performance of each segment of the route. VisualRoute has been recognized as an industry-leading Internet utility and has received top awards from many of the industry's leading publications and Web sites. 

• Visual - View the actual path of your Internet connection on a World map and see where data is being lost or excessive latency is occurring. 
• Integrated - Combines ping, Whois, traceroute and reverse DNS all into one program with the point-and-click ease of a graphical interface. 
• Informative - Answers the question "Why can't I get there from here?" by providing an analysis of the Internet from where you are to where you want to go. VisualRoute will help you to determine if a connectivity problem is due to your ISP, the Internet, or the host you are trying to reach, and pinpoints which network (i.e. WorldCom, Verio, Ebone, MSN) a problem is in. 
• Automated - The Ping Grapher tool in VisualRoute continuously monitors the response time of a network host in real time and displays the results on a graph, providing the ability to see ping responses over time for added reporting.
• Fast - Get results immediately! VisualRoute processes all IP hops in parallel instead of consecutively, which produces results dramatically faster than conventional traceroute programs. 
• Multi-lingual - The graphical interface is available in Czech, Dutch, English, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Spanish and Swedish, and may be easily changed from one language to another. 
• Multi-platform - Available on the Windows, Solaris, Linux, FreeBSD, and Mac OS X platforms. 

VisualRoute provides three types of data: an overall analysis, a data table, and a geographical view of the routing. The analysis section provides the number of routing hops, where problems occurred, the Web server software running at the destination site, and identifies any routing loops.  The data table lists information for each hop, including packet loss, IP address, node name, geographical location, ping response and the major Internet backbone where each server resides. The zoomable World map gives a graphical representation of the actual path of an Internet connection. A click on a server or network name provides Whois information including name, address, telephone and e-mail address -- instant contact information for your suspected problem, VisualRoute can be easily combined with the separately available eMailTrackerPro product. You can also use it with other network monitoring products by TamoSoft, such as CommView, CommView for WiFi, CommTraffic, and SmartWhois.
