I recently had the opportunity to speak with Jyrki Huhta, Alexander List, and Jani Kenttälä of Clarified Networks, best known for their freeware VMware Applicance called HowNetWorks.

If you haven't had the opportunity to see HowNetWorks, definitely take a look at this network packet analysis tool here. This fantastic tool makes the process of network traffic analysis very easy, showing traffic streams that pass by and enabling the administrator to move backwards and forwards through time to see the relationship between network traffic and problem analysis.

In this podcast, we talk about how to use network instrumentation like HowNetWorks to analyze and troubleshoot problems on the network. We talk about how the HowNetWorks tool enables even the uninitiated to recognize and trace back network traffic to isolate problems on the network. You'll learn some of the tricks they use to isolate problems on the network. Definitely check this one out.
