It has since become the premiere DSID and TechCon Link Monitoring tool in used in Al Asad, Iraq since 2005—helping to support Operation Iraqi Freedom.

Why Use Link Monitor 3.0?

Link Monitor 3.0 is the most sensitive network monitoring tool in the market and is able to detect network outage in real-time even if it's only a fraction of a second. It logs link fluctuation using its SQL Server 2005 database. Reports are generated using Microsoft Excel.

Is it SSH Compatible?

Yes, but it requires a third-party tool that cost several hundred dollars. Link Monitor itself is free, but if your organization requires SSH please contact me before purchasing a third-party component.
