SGI does not currently ship an SNMP daemon, but we have committed to SNMP
support and will be part of the SNMP demonstration at InterOp '90 in
San Jose Oct. 8-12.
The $8000 Network Management product you speak of is NetVisualyzer. It is
a set of passive network monitoring and diagnostic tools that can display
network traffic in real-time, draw traffic histograms, and capture and decode
packets from the network.
