Hi.

Environment:

$ tcpip sh ver

   HP TCP/IP Services for OpenVMS Alpha Version V5.7 - ECO 5
   on a COMPAQ AlphaServer DS20E 666 MHz running OpenVMS V8.4-2L2

We use TCPTRACE to monitor network traffic.
It is very helpfull to see the actual data packages that
are on the network when debugging machinery communicaation.

Now, TCPTRACE can only run in one copy at the same time
(on the same VMS system). I guess that has to do with the
way TCPTRACE "jacks" into the tcpip stack...

Does anyone know of any other tool that runs on the VMS system to
monitor network traffic and that can be run in multiple instances?

Regards,

Jan-Erik.
